These are suitable for 1.5mm - 2.5mm cable and are commonly used on sensors, light bars, headlights, electric windows, and most under-the-bonnet applications. The connectors create a seal by crimping the green seal onto the non-insulated terminal and cable, then clicking the terminal into the housing. For optimal results, use Laser Part No. 7248 ratchet crimp tool, which features unique wide stepped jaws to crimp the terminal and seal without damaging the terminal. This tool also crimps the smaller lugs around the cable for a neat, professional finish and includes a terminal removal tool. This Delphi Weatherproof Connector set contains: 1 x Male 2 Pin Connector, 1 x Female 2 Pin Connector, 2 x Male Terminals, 2 x Female Terminals, and 4 x Green Seals. Supplied in a blister pack, containing 10 pieces.

What are the common applications for these connectors?
They are commonly used on sensors, light bars, headlights, electric windows, and most under-the-bonnet applications.
How does the weatherproof seal work?
The seal is achieved by crimping the green seal onto the non-insulated terminal and cable, which then creates a barrier against moisture and contaminants when the terminal is clicked into the housing.
Troubleshooting
Connector not sealing properly
Ensure the green seal is correctly positioned over the non-insulated terminal before crimping and that the crimp is firm. Check if the correct size cable is being used.
Terminal not staying secured in housing
Verify that the terminal and seal assembly are fully inserted into the housing until it clicks. Ensure no wires are obstructing the locking mechanism.
Poor electrical connection after crimping
Re-crimp the terminal, ensuring the tool is applied correctly and the crimp is secure. Check the cable for any damage and ensure it is making good contact within the terminal.
