Dimitris76 0 Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 It's a Molex brand connector so I guess you can buy them in many places all over the world. At www.elfa.se that the above link is coming from for starters but also at digikey, mauser's, etc... Dimitris Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm having a similar problem with my Molex connector. Did you find a supplier? Jon Davies Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.RC-Cam 129 Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 Not that this offers any immediate remedy, but the dpcav.com site is expected to stock the KX171 style A/V cable in a couple weeks. If all that is wanted are empty Molex housings and pins, then I'll try to figure out the part number to them (once I review the factory built cable). Keep in mind that the proper hand tool to crimp the micro size pins cost several hundred dollars! Faking it with needle nose pliers rarely achieves a long term reliable crimp, but I suppose someone might get lucky if they have the hands of a surgeon. Long story short, I recommend a factory made cable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Macsgrafs 0 Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 Some older equipment use this type of connector, I would go seaching in skips outside of independant TV repair shops, a few old circuit boards & there's always this type of connector. It is the same one my range video gear uses for the TX. Ross Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rossmans 0 Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 (edited) FARNELL will probably have it. Google them, they have an outfit in the USA. (in fact..world wide). Edited August 7, 2008 by rossmans Quote Link to post Share on other sites
