Hi everyone,
While trying to clean up the 10-pin connector, I sheared off three of the four, small bolts that hold the 10 pin connector into it's housing (please see pic attached).
After putting some Kroil on them for a while, they will just not budge (they were mostly rusted) and I'm concerned that as the housing is plastic, if I drill them out, they will break the housing or pull the drill bit diagonal into the housing.
I've tried searching for the part number on the housing itself, but haven't been able to find anything that suits.
Can anyone please advise if this part is available or do I need to buy a whole new connector?
