Does anyone know where I can source the electrical connector (item 1 on the diagram) for the thermo switch ?

Are these standard electrical connectors that I could source from an auto-electrician ?

My connector has disintegrated.

Thanks!

These connectors seem impossible to source - as they are part of the car's wiring loom the only option would seem to be buying the entire loom from a wrecker.

My bare metal connector is just slid over the thermo switch's single pin, the connection is OK for a while but eventually it looses contact and the fan stops running causing overheating in traffic.

A quick wiggle of the connector fixes it again, for a short while...
