Does anyone know what type of connector ARB uses for their compressors and solenoids wiring? Looking at building a harness form scratch so I need the connector and terminals.

Why not go with weather pack connectors instead?
On most things that's normally what I do. But I want to be able to swap it over quickly if it breaks without having to rewire the connectors. My backup plan is to just cut up the harness up and create some adaptors.

Sumitomo 250 Series, unsealed. The gender in the pictures you posted is the female connector gender.

 
Isn't that a packard style connector?


No, Delphi/Packard 56 series is different. The latch in the picture is the giveaway that it's a Sumitomo 250 connector (they may be other compatible brands, because that's an oooold connector family).

If it is an actual Sumitomo brand, not a generic/compatible copy from China, there will be a small raised Sumitomo logo on it that looks like a #. It will be hard to see if it's natural nylon colored instead of black or brown. If it was from a car/truck, it would have the logo, but because it's from ARB then it's probably generic/compatible and not Sumitomo branded.

I wouldn't be surprised if there was an Amp/Tyco version of that as well.


It's hard to tell what you need without an actual picture of the connector, instead of a drawing from the manual.

Not my first automotive connector rodeo. :D
