Hello , I am in search of a retailer on replacement after market electrical plugs for the RX7's . Right now I need the Triggers,TPS and Fuel Rail Temp on a 3rd gen and can't seem to find them , called the local Mazda Dealer and they said they are not available seperatetly have to get the hold harness which I think is redicously. what would they do if the were to brake one offr when working on a customer vehicle are they going to replaced the hold harness ? which they are not. If anyone know where can purchase the replacement plugs such as a site please let me know I really appreciate it

If one breaks off they make them buy a new harness..

You don't need the fuel temp sensor, probably won't even be configured for that with your microtech.

I scavenged from crashed Japanese cars at the junkyard. Even quite new cars use the same plugs. Take you old ones with you and compare as you go.

I have a '94 under construction. The connectors get brittle and break over time. I found a harness on ebay and spliced the new connectors into the old harness. I took me a while to find a good used harness. I ended up buying one from a member in Japan. Mazmart in Atlanta has been a good source for other for used RX7 parts.

On this one we do its a customer car and runs the factory ECU.

Well Mazda vehicles had most of them, and not just on the engine, look on the firewall, etc. The injector plugs were off some little Toyota smashed so hard I couldn't tell what model. the injector plugs looked way different on the outside, but had the same profile inside. That's why it's best to hit a u-pick junkyard and take your old connectors with you.

You might try 2nd Generation Probes. I've found alot of other little things from them are identical to FDs....screw covers in the cowl, hood prop rod retainers, windsheild washer hose junctions etc. But I'd do as Tyson suggested, and bring your old connectors.

i have alot of spare pigtails from my harness. you just need to shoot me a pic of the ones you need
