A question for the connector gurus.....
Can anyone help me identify the connector used for the headlamp power-wash pump on Discovery 2 and Defender vehicles (probably also RRC, D1, and many others).

It is a two pin connector generally similar to a Superseal but with what look to be 4.8mm (or possibly even 6mm) blades rather than the usual narrower Superseal inserts. The Disco 2 Electrical Library give the part number as AFU3820, but I haven't been able to link this to anything meaningful.

Any help identifying this connector would be gratefully appreciated.

The connector on the pump looks like this:-

Looks like a wide-terminal version of the Econoseal used on the lights.  1988 90 Td5 NAS soft top

It's actually quite a lot bigger than an Econoseal, more the size of a Superseal.

Have you got the pump to hand? If so can you measure across the widest part of the connector - across the "ears"  1988 90 Td5 NAS soft top

Not to hand, it's at home. I will measure tonight.

I have found a GM part that looks promising, but I can't find a UK supplier:-

https://www.carid.com/standard/headlight-w...-1347.html

https://www.amazon.com/ACDelco-PT1447-Orig...B000C9U1W6

Amazon.com will ship to the UK, but surely there must be something home-grown!

I think I've found a match but need the dimension to confirm. Also measure the width of the metal tabs if you can Smile

Confirming if they are 4.8 or 6.3 will do, doesn't need to be exact Smile  1988 90 Td5 NAS soft top

Looks a bit like a 2.8mm blue Superseal, which are typically higher current. Chillin In The Backwoods🇬🇧🇺🇸

Doubt if it's Ford as the use of the connector pre-dates their ownership of LR.  1988 90 Td5 NAS soft top
