Trying to locate these. I doubt we'll find the inline 8-pin connector, but it can't hurt to ask.

If I can just identify the manufacturer of either, that'd be a great start. I have taken shots of the only "logos" I can find on these two connectors. One is a dual-row 8-pin connector presumably made by a company with the "SJD" logo where the "S" is really a little electric bolt looking thing. The other connector is even more obscure, but maybe someone has seen the logo before.

Aw, bummer. No new thoughts or suggestions? FWIW, I have found one source for the female side of the 8-pin inline connector. A place called Korean Electric Terminal (KET).

But they only make the female (wiring harness) side and are not the "SJD" company mentioned above.

Typicall GM uses the Metri-PAK connector line, those look similar.

Thank you. But these connectors are definitely not Metri-PAK or Weather PAK or any PED/Delphi/GM type connector. We have contacted Power and Signal (Delphi/PED distributor) and have located one of their

8-pin single row connectors that will sort of physically shove into the one I have here. But it is definitely not a proper match. For one, there is no mating locking mechanism nor any proper seal. It was only coincidental that their connector could be made to fit (with enough force and wiggling).

As for the dual row connector, the engineer at Power and Signal assured me it was not one of their connectors and that he had no match for it. He also could not recognize the "SJD" company logo. I can't believe that logo is so obscure. :( You'd think they'd like to make some sales or something, but they've managed to keep their identity pretty secret.

I do appreciate your response. The more ideas and suggestions I have, the better.

The more i read the more i feel that this is some bit from a fully captive manufacturer. Even if you could find them, you may not be able to buy any.

The "SJD" connector I was looking for has been located and purchased. Well, samples are on their way at least. Waiting for those to arrive from Japan in a couple of weeks.

I have no idea what SJD stands for, but the company name is Mitsubishi Cable America (Mitsubishi Cable Industries subsidiary).

Check out the drawings and you'll see SJD stamped on everything.

Wow. That was a LOT of work to locate those stupid things. Seems like they would want to stamp it with MCI or MCA or something.
