Hi LRF Family,

I was tearing down the engine for a head gasket change and new chains and couldn't get the connector off the throttle body. It appeared to be broken before and was maybe RTV'ed back on. I ended up breaking it more. The throttle body side is fine. I just need to find a new connector and splice it in. Any idea on where to find a new one? My fall back would be to buy a harvested wiring harness on Ebay but that is pretty pricey for one connector. Any help would be appreciated.

Found it. Just needed to search the right words. The connector that was broken was the throttle body position sensor connector. The previous mechanics must have broken the clip and to save time and money used RTV to hold it in place. It took a whole 5 minutes to release the pins and swap them over. Now I have a new connector with clip lock.

 

Thanks for helping me find the part number. I ended up getting one via the local Toyota dealership. It only has the plastic bits, but it's a genuine part so I'm guessing good quality plastic https://toyotaparts.ourismantoyotaof...r-f-9098011858
