VAG 4H0973713H 6-Way Brown Female Sealed Connector Plug

The Component: Genuine VAG high-performance 6-way sealed female connector housing with integrated Connector Position Assurance (CPA). 1.5mm Sealed Series / 6-Position (6P) dual-row flat contact terminal configuration / Coding H (Brown) unique mechanical keying / Impact-hardened PBT-GF15 automotive grade thermoplastic body / Red secondary CPA slider lock / Engine compartment and body electronics subsystem interface component / VAG Part Number: 4H0973713H / Original Manufacturer: FEP (FEP Reference: 42535200 / 42545200).

Applications & Fitment: Engineered to strict factory specifications for late-model Volkswagen Audi Group (VAG) vehicles, including Audi A4 B9, A5, Q5, and Volkswagen premium platforms. This specific brown-coded 6-pin housing is used across highly localized electrical networks such as advanced throttle body systems, electronic turbo wastegate actuators, automated trunk/hinge lid mechanisms, and complex multi-channel sensor arrays. The physical layout utilizes a dual-row (2x3) arrangement that maximizes pin density within a compact, vibration-dampened footprint. Its H-coding profile ensures precise mechanical keying, preventing accidental cross-mating with identically shaped black or gray connectors during multi-loom factory installations or workshop maintenance. Equipped with a robust rear silicone mat seal or individual wire grommets, it establishes a reliable moisture-resistant barrier against water ingress, high-pressure washdowns, and fluid contaminants. Perfect for direct OE harness repair, specialty automotive diagnostics, and bespoke motorsport wiring fabrication.
