Hi,

I was shocked to find that these old AMP Italy connectors are actually still in stock:

Paul.

Thats very cool, i see also that other sizes are still available.
Next question, i searched for AMP Pin or AMP Connector on the same site, but i cant find the pins that are needed for these, also i never have ordered pins, and know there is a lot of differences.

Do you know which one's go in these ? (preferably a link from that site as they also have a dutch site and ordering will not be a problem i guess)

@ Bela, If you have one, thats also cool ofcourse :-)

The series is called "AMPMODU Mod I" and they have a variety of contacts for the series. This list link *may* work:

It appears I've been using 280702-1 "tin contacts" (that I got from Mouser):

I have 3 pieces of 8 pin connectors, one cut off with very small wires and 2, as a part of a loom.
Also has some crimps.

Thanks Paul !

@Bela, Cool, i got a crimper for those pins, so if you can miss one of the connectors and 8 pins (make that 10 if i screw up), i am very interested to buy from you.

Those crimp pins in Bela's photo are not the right pins for the AMP Modu I connector housing, see the DigiKey photo.

Yeah, Paul is right, I tried to install one, but it does not fit to the connector.
The connector with those small wires has all the crimps at each hole factory installed, if you can remove the remaining plastic isolation and solder some cables, it might be ok.

i have the AmpModu crimp pins.

But I am out of 8pin plugs
