Need help replacing ecu connector
Hi!
My ECU connector is corroded with a couple of missing pins.
This kind is apparently impossible to de-pin.
I have two options:
1. Buy new Ecu loom -> cut my connector off -> solder the cables together
2. Buy new empty ECU plug housing -> cut my cables and apply new pins to them -> simply slot into the right spot in the connector housing
After being unable to find an identical Ecu loom for months now, I came up with the second option.
My main question is, is option 2 feasible at all?
And how do I find the kind of pins that should go on the end of the wire? I'm unable to find it online.
Car: Audi A4 B8.5 2012 1.8 tfsi black edition
The connector plug unit code is: 4H0906971
Ecu unit code: 8K0906264
