I just started a project, where I will make a new controller for my air condition. The simplest way I found to do this, was to just disconnect the existing controller, and keep all the high voltage control as it was. To control fans and compressor, I got a 5 pin connector with gnd, 5v, fan high, fan low, and compressor. I tried to google 5pin connector, and also tried with locking connector. I tried to find it on digikey too, where I am pretty sure it will actually be, but I think it is drowning in all the results. Does anyone know what type connector this is? |

Things that might help: 1) Measure the pitch as exactly as you can. Have a micrometer? 2) Zoom in on any special markings on the housing. |

The markings says FAF and after a google search this picture turned up https://sc02.alicdn.com/kf/HTB16oMRc6fguuRjSspkq6xchpXax/High-quality-electric-male-female-connectors-pin.jpg https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/High-quality-electric-male-female-connectors_60790858384.html That is exactly the connector already on there. The pitch is 2.5mm, so it is pretty standard. A bit further digging lead me to this https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-3-4-5Pin-JST-SM-Plug-Male-Female-Quick-Wire-Connector-Adapter-Terminal-Easy/183834756209 and that is where I also saw the connectors before! It seems to be exactly the same used for many LED strips. I knew I had seen them before, and it was driving me insane I could not put a finger to where I had seen them. |
