Topic: I REALLY need to know where I can find more thermistor harnesses.

Mine is now broken, and I am in dire need of a new one.  I don't need a new thermistor, just a new harness.

If you mean you broke the locking tab just hot glue the plugs together with a dab on the side of the plugs, easy to do plus they are still removable if in need of service. smile

Re: I REALLY need to know where I can find more thermistor harnesses.

I am looking for the blue plug that the thermistor wires connect to, which lock into the wires that go to the board.  I broke the glass part of the stock thermistor, and I have a new one that I tried to replace, but I could not get the wires to get into the leads, so I tried crimping them, but the aluminum leads broke.
