Ok many wild ass guesses to follow.

Can you show the other end (face) of the connector. Many of these connectors take a two prong depinning tool. I depinned a turn signal connector by using a paper clip with a very small bend in the tip.



You may find the connector with short leads here

Last long shot…it looks similar to the horn connector if you need to salvage and splice something.

That’s all the nonhelpful guesses I have

Found this, looks like the sensor-transfer case position. If it’s the correct plug all you need is the correct terminals to go in it.

De-pin it, and re-crimp it.

Order a waterproof 2 wire plug kit and make a new one.

If you are able to repair it I would be curious to know how you depinned the wires from the connector.

Looks like same connector as one I had to repair on daughter’s rig. The center should pop out of the shell, likely pressing in the small tabs on the side that lock into the square holes. I was able to keep the pins and just solder the wires back to the pins. Make sure to push the needed wires into the back of the shell first tho, or you’ll have to undo the repair and get it right. Possibly speaking from experience…

I dropped it off at @roaniecowpony house last night so he could work on repairing it. He sent me this image last night.

He also found a cheap $15 ebay version if the repair doesnt work. And then theres the final boss mopar version for $60 plus tax (if even available).

I've fought worse connectors. The puzzle of connectors is figuring out how they come apart. This one locks the pins in with that white insert. Then you can access the lock tabs, which in this connector are part of the main body of the connector. The lock insert on this connector is misleading in that some connectors with a face inserted lock also extract the pin out of the face side. These pins go in and out of the back.

These connector pins are removed like the very first connector he depins in this video (after removing the white plastic lock in the face side).

SoCal Jeep folks are lucky to have you around

This keeps my enormous income below the tax radar. My preferred payment is Modelo Negra, or PBR if that's not available, or just about any swill in a pinch. But, if a Georges LaTour Cab is offered, I generally don' t turn that down.

So in keeping the tally @Sportacus owes you 1 case of Modelo for fixing the connector and 1 order of french fries for me for picking up the connector and driving it to his house.
