Fuse and ground block connectors

[496bb]

So, I think a I’ve found the pack of multi colored connectors from Autowire @ Summit to tap into some of the empty fuse block spots.

But, does anyone know of a part number and where to get a factory type connector to use with this ground block under the dash?

I’d prefer to use an appropriate locking connector if possible.

Are you near a salvage yard?

Are you near a salvage yard?

Aren't those spot welded on?

FYI- I used them in my 85 and they worked like the originals. I believe they were even color coded correctly for the slots.

Hard to find squares in salvage yards around here. The ground block connectors are what I need to source.

Pretty sure this is what your looking for.

Thanks Matt, but that looks to be a male connector. I need a female to plug onto that ground block pictured.

The connectors for that ground you picture are oddball, I had a hard time finding any of them. I managed to cut one out of an old SB wiring harness and IIRC I cut one out of a GMT400 harness.

oops- edited- misread your post- thought you were talking about the fuse block

for fuse block-i believe they are GM Pack-Con III Series Terminal (female) - also refereed as Aptiv or Delphi-Pack-Con III Series

-example store link- They are available from a lot of places- google and it will pull up several.


For the ground bus bar- maybe faston terminals ??

Similar location used in the GMT400? Those are easier to find in the junkyard.

wiring diagrams show GM part number 12004267 I cross reference it and it came up with Delphi/Packard 56 Series female connector & housing. (GM 56 Series terminals)

-example link- If that is correct, female series 56, i would personally use a housing more like this -link-

I'm not sure where they would be in a GMT400, We had a few GMT400 vortec complete harnesses and a SB Suburban interior harness laying around when I built my truck. I was able to rob bits and pieces off as I went along, they saved me a fortune in wire expense since I added so many electronic features to my truck.

Yep, they work. They have a tab that holds them in the plastic housing. I bought a box male and female connectors from my local auto parts Carquest. I posted on here years ago the part numbers. Not sure where, but I shared it.
