Hello, could you tell where can I buy those wires?
my local dealer said they dont sell replacement wires.
I got issue with my connector aswell
I got issue with my connector aswell
I went to my local Audi dealership and they showed me the replacement sockets.
Basically they sell a wire about 12" with a female socket on each end ($15) i bought 5 but he only charged me $6 each because i had to wait a while for them to track them down.
When the female socket block is removed is actually splits into 2 halves horizontally allowing slightly easier access to the sockets. I noted one of the my wires had come completely loose due to the corrosion.
I tried multiple small screwdriver attempts to release the pins, but in the end it was some gentle persuasion and a spot of brute force to remove them. I only actually had 2 sockets that were corroded so i cut the wire into about 1" lenghts from each end. Soldered the original wire to the new socket wire and replaced.
Voila my TCM code has gone
Next thing is to get the throttle body sorted and i should be back to normal.

TCM Wiring plug/sockets
My TCM was soaked and I am replacing. When doing so I noticed the female sockets that the TCM plugs into were coroded and a few wires had actually broken loose. Has anyone tried to replace the entire housing with the female sockets and splice the wires back together? Thanks
