Hi Martin,
Lockwood Aviation Supply will stock those items. The Maintenance
Manager, Kerry Younck, at 863-655-6229 should be able to help you out
with part numbers. As I am sure you know, it is important that the
retaining barbs on the Faston connectors are bent out so that you get
full locking engagement in the housing. On one occasion, a generator
wire on my engine vibrated loose due to this problem.
Cheers, John

Subject: Europa-List: Locking Spade Connectors
Hi Folks,
I'm rewiring my panel a little to make it easier to pull for maintenance.
I'm looking for the part number or a source for those spade connectors that
slide onto the spades of the Rotax (Ducati) regulator. I'm specifically looking
for the ones that lock into the plastic housing (which holds all five or six
connectors and then locks itself onto the regulator). I can find regular 1/4
in spade connectors but they don't lock into the housing and thus are very
difficult to push on as the contacts are up inside the regulator some.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Regards,
Martin Tuck
