OMP position sensor plug

I was recently having a last check on things with my 04 before finally taking it out on the road and I found a broken wire in the plug going to the omp position sensor, unfortunately the wire is broken right there at the connector so I can't just repair it. Can someone confirm for me please exactly what that plug is so I can find a replacement?

Thank you for that link. I think I found one that comes as a pigtail already made up so it'll just be a matter of splicing in the new wires. If it works I will post a link to what I got. I found the part number actually from one of the WTB ads in the parts for sale area so I am hopeful that it will work.

Have you attempted to de-pin the one broken wire from the connector? If you do that, you can trim the broken wire and solder in a new short piece with pin and just push the pin back in the connector and it will be good to go. No need to clip the connector and solder in a new pigtail if you don't need to.

If the connector lock doesn't release or is mangled, I would then seek a pigtail from a parts car.

I ended up getting https://a.co/d/61y5x8w this plug, but I got mine from ebay because amazon didnt have one as a premade pigtail and i suck at crimping. Would have been nice if the pigtail didnt use all the same color wires but is what it is. Fit perfectly so I'm happy to have that fixed.

Glad to hear you were bale to get it fixed. Having a new pigtail will ensure no other pins were loosened in their locks and pin fit for that connection should be excellent for many many years.
