2 position electrical connector

Hello,
I am trying to source both halves of an electrical connector that is used in a few locations on the 6.5L engine harness. This connector is used in the interface to the tachometer sending unit and also on the crank sensor at the front of the engine on the drivers side. It is a 2 position connector that is keyed (via internal step) between the male and female halves. Pictures of both connector halves are attached.

My goal is to make a y cable to splice in other signal connections without cutting into the existing truck harness. I checked with Erik's Military Supply and came up short.

Appreciate any help you can provide locating these connectors.

Thanks.

I think you mean 2 pin connector.
And it will only go together one way or actually in one position since it's keyed to only go together one way.

What your looking for is a Cannon Sure Seal Series connector Male P/N 120-8552-00 Female P/N 120-8551-00 and the pins are 3308672000 crimp pin and 0318703000 crimp socket.
I have purchased them at several places like epay and www.newark.com
happy hunting

Not that I am promoting any place to purchase these parts but for info you can go to the web sight listed above put the listed part numbers in their search field and pull up more info on the connectors. It took a lot of searching for me to find these, just trying to save you time.

Some people call them Packard connectors. I bought a bunch off the-Bay a while back just to have them. A crimping tool is useful, or you might try soldering (crimper ex. Buchanan C-24). Protip: put a little dielectric grease on any of these you take apart, so they can be taken apart later without yanking and swearing.

The pics he is showing are not standard Packard connectors. Each has 2 pin, and is both male and female.

He might need to make a replacement
