Sumitomo 6098-0247 MT Series 8-Way Grey Female Plug

The Component: Genuine Sumitomo 6098-0247 8-way automotive unsealed connector housing plug. MT Series 250/090 Hybrid or Straight 2.3mm (090) Type 8-position dual-row socket receptacle casing (Light Gray / PBT / Unsealed / Cable Mount Inline Shroud / Locking Thumb-Latch).

Applications & Fitment: Designed as a primary factory original equipment (OE) wiring harness connection solution for automotive cabin electronics, dashboard control networks, and steering column switch clusters. Universally specified across global Japanese passenger car and commercial vehicle platforms (most notably inside Toyota, Nissan, Honda, and Mazda main body harnesses) as the definitive female plug interface for power mirror controls, window regulator drops, auxiliary lighting circuits, and steering wheel clockspring sub-looms.

Engineered to perform flawlessly under standard cabin vibrations with strict structural dimensional controls. Highly vulnerable to primary external thumb-latch locking arm snapping if pried roughly when brittle from cold winter conditions, or internal wall deformation if back-probed carelessly during multi-meter dashboard field troubleshooting.
