Connector wire RESOLVED

[4uall]

As always there are people who know more than I. This being the case, I ask you all "what is the wire called that attaches to this sensor in the coolant t outlet?" I need to repair it before it breaks or becomes detached

that is the temp sensor for the FI and it's a critical part of the system. You can buy a pigtail that has a new connector and about 6" of wire. I'd suggest you solder and heat shrink the splices rather than using crimp style connectors

thanks Mark, the sensor I was aware of it was actually the connector itself I was curious about. I was not able to find it exactly as I did not know what it is called.

The best fix is to get a pigtail for a BMW. Those have a retaining clip that is springloaded and very easy to remove compared to the style that Fiat used. I carry them as well as the original style if you can't find one anywhere else

... I was not able to find it exactly as I did not know what it is called.

"fuel injection connector" or "Bosch style connector" or "fuel injection electrical plug" etc.

All Fiat parts vendors carry them.
