Anyone know where I can get a 11 or 12 pin electrical connector. Male and female plug with pins that I would terminate to the wires. I got a steering column for my truck but it does not have a connector on it for the wires. The column has 11 wires. Has 3 wires that do not need to be terminated.

Thanks!

Chris,

McMaster Carr, on page 751, has pin and sleeve connectors up to 12 pins (poles). They are cool looking things you assemble yourself.

Maybe not what you had in mind, but take a look...catalog page #751.

If you have one of those car recycler places close by you can always go there. I am upgrading and creating a completely new wiring harness for my truck since I want certain options and I just went to Ecology and took wiring harnesses from other late model cars and used those connectors. It is a cheap and and all the connectors will be "standard" automotive. just a thought. good luck!

Why not keep it Chevy? All the '70s and '80s "C" trucks, (and probably cars, too,) have a multipin firewall plug for the harness. It should work fine and might even have the same color codes as your column.

Best wishes,

Les

I would go to your local Car-Quest or tractor place and get a few 6-pin pacard weather pacs cheep. If not, check any electrical supply house for Deutsch connectors (Distributed thru LADD).
