Old Unwanted Lucas AFM Anyone?

[PeteGriff]

Hi all, I want to make a special 'hook up' connector for adjusting the trim on the Lucas AFM's. I have a spare 'loom' plug (the one that fits the AFM) but require a connector (its actuall a male plug) as fitted on the AFM's. So firstly has anyone got a duff scrap AFM that I could take the connector out of, or does anyone know the connector type/manufacturer? Many thanks, Pete

The connector is called "Junior Power Timer Connectors"

The (male) end that plugs in to the AFM is available from ECS at www.electricalcarservices.com

Maybe they can get you a new female connector.

Many thanks 'Blaze' a useful site. I actually have a 'plug' that I will use that came with a spare AFM I bought a while back. I actually need the part that is mounted on the AFM itself, I shall peruse the site you gave. Regards, Pete

I have had no luck in sourcing one of the AFM mounted plugs, I now know exactly the type and make, but 6 pin plugs (as fitted to the AFM's) do not seem to be available. So, if anyone has an old duff AFM that was due to be scrapped, I would like the plug fitted to it, don't need the AFM body. Your help is appreciated, regards, Pete

I have this exact problem .. when I do my AFM upgrade I change to two male and female 2 pin plugs (only 4 of the 6 pins are used)
The 6 pin male isn't available. I asked Simtek recently though and they said a porsche specialist had comissioned an injection moulding for the male 6 pin end so try calling simtek to see if they can put you in touch with that porsche specialist .. ?

someone in the world is making them as there are new AFM's for sale on ebay.

I have spare working AFM if you want it to take the socket off it. Yours for the cost of postage. Cheers jes

Hi guys, unfortunately Jes could not find his old AFM (many thanks anyway Jes), so I am still looking for the 6 way socket on the Lucas AFM's! If anyone has an old duff AFM that I could remove the socket from that would be great, please let me know. Regards, Pete

Can anyone help? Many thanks, Pete
