2002 Road King Classic EFI

The wire going to my Oil pressure sending unit has broken off at the connector. The connector is one that can not be repaired and must be replaced. It is coated with rubber? and the wire leading to it also coated.
The dealer says the part is obsolete with no replacement available.
Even if the harness was available it would cost $70 which is a bit out of line for what the problem is.
Attached is a picture of the oil pressure sending unit along with the broken connector. There should be a pig tail on that connector.

Does anyone know what to do about the problem? If I could find a connector with a pigtail I would be ecstatic.

 

All you need is a crimped connector with a hole in it, to fit over that stud, plus a suitable nut and shakeproof washer. The cherry on the cake would be a small rubber boot, to cover it. Take a look around your local auto parts store, with your unit in hand. SHould cost very little for the parts.

 

You could also try a bullet connector. It would slip right over terminal on the sensor. They are already insulated.

A lot of money but if it's what you want.

 

It is the part I need but, as you say, a lot of money for a piece of wire and connector.
Thanks. Will consider it.

 

Thanks gr. Have considered this option but opted for a crimp connector that can be just pushed on because I can insulate it from road grime. Your suggestion is option #2 in case the crimp connector does not do the job.

Option #3 is repair the old connector. Here is a quote from another forum I posted re the subject

 

Have you found your fix on this problem yet? I want to convert my pressure switch (like yours) to a sending unit to a gauge on the batwing console. I have added the pressure and air temp gauges. I found a parts list of all components on the Touring bikes and a company out of Milwaukee that sells all the connectors, switches, wiring harnesses, etc.

But I have a question if anyone can help?!?!?!?!?!
IS IT THAT SIMPLE TO CHANGE OUT THE SWITCH TO A SENDING UNIT?
If so, how will the console light now work?????

 

I have had the temporary crimp connector in place for 9 months now. No problems at all. Still have the original repaired connector waiting in the background in case the crimp connector fails. See post #6
