That 2 pin connector is common to many cars including V's. It is so common that you can buy it new many places as a generic PHI wiring repair kit. It comes 2 ways. As a already wired pigtail that you splice in or as a housing with new loose pins you crimp onto your wire ends. VW color codes the plastic while the generic kits are mostly black. http://www.amazon.com/Help-85850-Bosch-Injector-Repair/dp/B000COBGL6 http://www.amazon.com/Bosch-1287013003-Fuel-Injector-Connector/dp/B001CNZF7W/ref=sr_1_sc_1?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1358025524&sr=1-1-spell&keywords=Bosch+injection+connecotr Mark David Clarkson wrote: > I was in the process of replacing the temp 2 sending unit on my 1990 > vanagon and was also checking the wiring for the temperature gauge > sending unit today and the connector for the temperature gauge sending > unit broke.
