SnoopZ Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 (edited) When i used to use spade connectors in my job years ago i used the ones with a plastic sleeve on, but from your picture it looks like a spade connector of the correct size is needed and i would use 1 with a sleeve on covering the whole connector but the connector below would also be suitable, you just need to figure out the correct size. What did the female connector look like before? Edited August 26, 2018 by SnoopZ Jim K 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnoopZ Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 (edited) edit Just snip the wire and put the new spade on there making sure it fits properly, but i am not an electrician so takecare what you're doing and seek help from someone qualified if you don't think you're 100%.
