Starter/main fuse connector melted

[lutorm]

So I'm cleaning up the wiring and giving everything a good look over and after having to work a bit to get the connector to the main fuse / starter relay off it was clear why: the plastic on the fuse was melted into a little ball and the connector didn't look much better on the inside. I assume this was from poor contact in the connector or the fuse holder. Luckily it seems the fuse holder assembly is available and not too bad at $20. However, the connector on the main loom seems like a harder case. I just got a bunch of those Sumitomo connectors from cycleterminal.com, but since this includes the fuse cover it must be a super special part. Anyone have a source for them?

Thanks,

This is the only one i can find, the starter solenoid wont be any good at that price but at least it has the plug with it

The red solenoid plug you mention is extremely rare.

Rick Oliver has a replacement solenoid and plug which is much more common than the Honda red plug

Look on e bay for "starter motor solenoid connector," Towzertronics sell them for around £9

Well, upon closer inspection it seems the problems aren't limited to that connector. If you enjoy looking at distressed connectors, check out this post. I think that instead of replacing this and having it go bad again, I'm going to completely upgrade the supply wiring...
