Digi Cool sensor mod......

[y7turbo]

now i guess the end of that headphone jack unscrews allowing you to solder the connection on the inside and seal it back up??

You got it.

[KLEINman]

You got it.

Thanks, just got back from radio shack, gonna give it a whirl....

If you want to start fresh the 4 pin sensor plug # for your 1250 is a Bulgin PX0410/04S/4450
the gold plated pins are separate SA3347/1

I got mine from www.digi-key.com

Here is some product info and a cutaway.

You may want to try and unscrew the end cap of your old plug and try and rig the wiring into the old plug.
Not as easy as starting fresh but it can be done.

Did you get your parts? The gold plated pins come 10 to a pack? Am I reading that right?

[KLEINman]

You got it.

Already finished, will post pics shortly, you the man y7

Yes that's what I got.
I bought those a while back before I went with two double pin (1200 style) plugs on the 1250.
FWIW the "pins" on the two wire plug are larger and don't work on the 4 wire plug.
I'm thinking about using the leftovers to take out the transducers and run them out on a wire with plug instead of using hoses like the MFM300 and set it up with core removers to replace a manifold.
I think it should all fit in a VETO MB

Wow that's thinking way outside the box. Good luck. Keep us posted

Here's a little trick that I've come up with to protect the sensors.

Take the sensor and carefully wrap it up about the width of your palm and close the velcro around it.

Now, wrap a piece of insulation a bit longer than it is around it and wrap a mille-tie around that. Radio Shack has them around here.

I got the contact cement, 2'' aluminum sprin clamps from Harbor Freight, along with heat shrink tubing for marking one of the wires with red for the high side, and for the connections that needed to be soildered at each end of the wire. I used shring tubing instead of using electrical tape. I got the 6.5'' attenuating dubbing cable from radio shack. I got the Bernzomatic butane micro flame torch from Home Depot, it was perfect for this project. For the clamps I drilled out the center of the clamp where the temp sensor is so it could be somewhat more flush mounted instead of sticking up so high, then used the contact cement to mount in place.

Kleinman did you end up soldering them. I guess you could use cooper air pobes and actually have air temps on digicool(not at same time)

Yea those connections are soldered. I did the same thing.. Works good. Only problem is Im using the cooper clamps more then the digicools..

are those bulgin part numbers for the plug on the ak900
