Engine Plug
The plug pictured is in the engine fuse box. It has12 pins round that fit into a plastic moldied plug case. the female half is okay - it is only the male side that has failed.
Mine, either through age and heat or through rough handling, has decided to fall apart.
I have looked on the PET and cannot see that this plug housing is avaialable. Has anyone had this problem, is there a replacement plug housing or has anyone found an answer?
All suggestions appreciated.

i had to repair similar re my emergency flasher. Looks doable as you haven't lost much plastic.
Open it carefully AND TAKE CAREFUL PICS OF HOW THE WIRES ARE LOCATED (ask me how I know that ) https://rennlist.com/forums/964-foru...ed-please.html
Also make a little map using the numbers on the plastic case and the colours of the wires.
then remove the wires from the case, clean the contacts and the case, file it smooth if neceessary and glue it back together with some exposy,
allow to dry for a couple hours, file off any overspilled glue, replace wires, and you're good/satisfied

I second that! Took hours upon hours assuring that I put them in correctly using just the PET schematics!
