Lets play name that connector!
« on: August 27, 2019, 08:59:59 am »
This is the radio from a 2005 Honda Accord.
It's 20 pin, contacts on top and bottom.
The increments on the ruler are 0.5mm. It's 9.8mm wide, 4.75mm high, and 4.15mm deep.
The depth of the hole is 2.15mm.
Pin pitch looks to be about 0.78mm, or 0.030"

Are there any markings on the connector? They can usually be used to identify the manufacturer, which can give a good start to identifying the exact part. Markings may not necessarily be textual, just a logo. For example, the Japanese company Yazaki use a simple, easily-missed arrow shape.

Also, knowing the OEM (i.e. not necessarily Honda themselves) of the radio itself can give a clue to likely connector manufacturer. If an Asian company, look at Asian connector manufacturers, and so on for European, American, etc.

Also bear in mind that for a product more than a decade old, the manufacturer may have discontinued the part, so will not appear in current catalogues.

I'd say you're on to a winner there with that Molex part. :-+ Being a Molex Japan part also goes with it being in a product from a Japanese auto manufacturer. It doesn't happen to have an 'MXJ' marking anywhere on it, does it? That would confirm it.

There may actually be something on the back of the connector. It's a pain to keep pulling the thing out the car though and I can't make it out on the picture
