TE Connectivity 368047-1 AMP MCP 1.8 Series 2-Way Sealed Male Connector Housing
Restore absolute circuit continuity, manage heavy current demands, and completely lock out moisture from critical vehicle subsystems with this genuine TE Connectivity 368047-1 16 way sealed male automotive connector housing. Precision-engineered by TE Connectivity to meet rigorous tier-1 automotive manufacturing standards, this heavy-duty 16 pin tab plug belongs to the universally trusted AMP Multiple Contact Point (MCP) 1.8mm series. Outfitted with high-strength terminal retention features and sharp, error-free polarization tracking channels, it is the definitive trade standard for creating high-reliability wire-to-wire inline connections.
The 368047-1 housing is an exceptionally robust component heavily utilized across light passenger vehicles, agricultural equipment, and heavy commercial vehicle wiring frameworks (including extensive placement in premium European marques like BMW and Volkswagen Group). Designed to comfortably house 1.8mm flat male tab contacts, it is a frequent workshop repair item for high-vibration, high-exposure powertrain nodes—most notably interfacing with fuel injection systems, electric fuel pumps, turbocharger actuators, and heavy-duty fluid pressure sensors. Because these components are positioned directly in path of extreme under-hood heat cycles, chemical cleaners, and high-pressure road spray, factory wiring clips consistently fracture or lose their structural elasticity over time. A compromised housing allows the circuit to loosen, yielding intermittent signal drops or catastrophic limp-mode faults. This authentic replacement shell allows master auto-electricians and custom harness manufacturers to safely rebuild a factory-grade pigtail patch right on the workbench, avoiding the immense cost and downtime of a full factory harness replacement.
### Key Features & Technical Specifications:
* **Genuine TE Connectivity Componentry:** Guarantees exact mechanical tolerances, perfect alignment, and factory-specified insertion forces. Eliminates terminal backing and loose pin fitment risks common with cheap aftermarket replicas.
* **Heavy-Duty MCP 1.8mm Architecture:** Built to accept high-conductivity 1.8mm flat male tab contacts, allowing for robust current handling capabilities in a highly space-efficient, low-profile 16 position block.
* **IP67 Rated Submersion Defense:** Engineered with an integrated high-performance perimeter mating gasket and rear wire-entry channels, sealing out high-pressure engine washdowns, road spray, humidity, engine lubricants, and winter road salt.
* **High-Impact, Heat-Stabilized Construction:** Molded from a premium engineering polymer designed to comfortably retain its structural strength, lock-tab flexibility, and terminal grip through punishing under-hood temperature extremes.
* **Positive Tactile Latching:** Outfitted with an robust primary locking bridge that fastens onto the mating female socket block with a distinct, audible click, ensuring the circuit remains perfectly anchored under severe engine torque and chassis vibration.
