Default Connector pins

I have a 93 springer softail that Im swapping bars on. The previous owner butchered the wiring by extending the wiring to fit a set of ape hangers. Does anyone know the name of the pins that plug into the frame? Ive come up with 2 names, dupont and duetsch. I’m thinking duetsch may be for later models than 93..... confusing....

Get the service manual... if you still can find one, but I think HD mostly used Duetsch in the later models...

Deutsch is mentioned in my '18 Softails service manual. Deutsch and Packard are mentioned in my '04 Softails service manual. I didn't see dupont mentioined but didn't look super closely in the '04.

I replaced my factory connectors with Weatherpak style connectors because they are much easier to find and they can be easily disassembled and reassembled. I would recommend buying a WeatherPak or a Metripak connector "kit" so you have several different configurations of connector bodys to choose from. You can find them at Jegs.
