Default Three-Prong A/C Blower Relay Connector

The three-prong, hard plastic connector on my A/C blower relay has cracked/split with age/heat. I checked for a replacement at NAPA and other local stores but no luck. Anyone know where I can get that connector? The pic shows the three-prong configuration. The fourth wire connects separately.

I was positive I bought one at NAPA, but cant find on their website. I did find one however on the AC Delco site. Look up ACDelco Part # PT2068. While this part has the wires, they can easily be removed and your existing wires inserted for a clean factory look. RockAuto sells them for $2.90 http://www.rockauto.com/dbphp/prt,316,PT2068

Great tip! Thank you. I will pursue that.

*Edit* - Living in Canada is cruel and unusual punishment. RockAuto wants $20.43 to ship a $2.50 part. Then I pay a brokerage fee, then border taxes, etc. I'll see if the local AC Delco dealer can get that for me.

Well if they can't take care of you then let us know. There's a post office right down the street and I can always put a package in the post!

Thats insane. The part you're looking for should not be hard to find locally. Check with a AC Dealer or go back into NAPA and see if they can cross reference to the Delco part number PT2068.

Ok, I found the number at NAPA. Its ECH ARC100
Go to the NAPA Parts ProSE site: http://www.napaonline.com/NOLPPSE/(S...)/Welcome.aspx

And enter ECH ARC100 in the search box.

Neither NAPA Canada nor AC Delco Canada can get that part for me?? If someone can source one easily and mail it to me in a padded pouch that would be appreciated. I will send a money order for the total cost. Send me a PM. Thanks!

Not sure how concerned you are about everything being perfect but you could borrow the plastic connector from your alarm relay to go in the engine compartment.Since the alarm relay is hidden you could make a connector out of hot glue to hold the 3 wires or just wait for one to show up on an old harness at a swap meet.

Steve has kindly taken care of this for me. I've been around this Forum for many years and his help is typical of the down-right niceness of members. It never ceases to amaze me.

As a return gesture, look in the Parts section. I have a pair of brand-new 1968-69 SS exhaust tips for shipping only.
