If you're looking for THE BEST connector for your application, whether it be automotive, motorsports, powersports, motorcycles, aircraft or marine. Look no further than Delphi Weatherpack connectors. The ones I'm using are of the Seal-All aviation brand, but they say "Delphi" right on the latch.

It's a simple job, but it does help to have some special tools to make sure it's done correctly. (Links below. 👇) But when you're done, you're left with a connector that will outlast any solderless or others on the market. In this case, spend the extra $$$ and KNOW it will hold up.

Nice, clearly explained and shown steps. Thanks for the work putting this together.

[mihaiivan]

Thank you for this video. One of the best and most to the point videos about crimping terminals.

[nv]

Still a GREAT clear video. No stupid music, just to the point.
Well done, thanks.

[papergatorzfedducca]

New subscriber!! This is the best video I could find!!!! The pics helped, the up close view of the crimper, camera angles etc!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

After watching 4 videos that either never zoomed in to show the process or there was no Audio instructions. Youtubes algorithm gave me this perfect video recommendation thank you sir for making my day easier and for a great instructional video.

Thanks very much, this is the clearest video I've seen on putting these connectors together - I'll be using one for the first time tomorrow fitting a satnav to my motorcycle. Many videos just blow through or completely ignore the details. I've watched about 5 so far that haven't thought to show whether to put male connector in the male housing or the female housing, which part of the crimping tool to use when, and how to align the connector pin wings with the housing. 👍👍👍

Just bought some connectors. Now I know how to use them. Great video. Thanks.

Just helped me finish a job on a farm sprayer! Thanks!

[rdmd]

The overall content of the tutorial is very helpful. My only suggestion would be perhaps to take some close-up shots of the connectors after you finish them and hold them still. Even by stopping the video and going frame by frame, I was unable to get a clear view of the connectors because you were rotating them when you were showing them off, lol.

Thanks for the vid! I'm adding a remote start to my Ram 2500 but I'm also building a Vans RV 7 as well. Positive Ill be using this with the Vans later on.

Sofar the best ever metri pack instructions. Thank you.

[Gfunkbus]

Just got myself some of these for an automotive rewiring job I'm doing, thanks for the clear and concise video!

[ojulieann]

Great video, and I couldn’t help noticing the P-38 literature! Beautifully presented instructional video. Only part I could have used more close ups (and slow)was in how to exactly position the terminal into the crimping tool before squeezing the handles. No big deal though, I figured it out. Thanks and keep up the great work.

Just bought a pontoon boat and am running some electrical wires using the Delphi connecters which I've never used. Excellent video - appreciate your instructional video. With your Sonex....you're probably heading to Airventure in a few weeks. CAVU

Very technical yet interesting and inspiring. Thank you

[robwilliams]

Thank you for the video cleared some stuff up

[fuzzy]

Nice very straight forward got to do my fans

[EvilChuckie]

Please don't solder aviation connections in high-vibration environments the mechanical lock keeps the wire securely attached, they don't offer the same conductivity as a soldered connection, soldered connections offer superior conductivity but are more likely to work-harden and break where the solder ends at a stress point.

[markbrock]

Very nice video. I like the care you put into your work.
If I could suggest one thing. Napa makes something called Sil-Glyde that is a silicon based sealant, non-hardening to help things slide into place and seal better. Might keep seals from damage while sliding into place and long term better waterproofing. (Di-Electric grease is probably the better fit).

You shouldn't twist the wires for these connectors. This prevents the little tabs from working themselves into the wire. You want the strands to be straight so the tabs enter the wire and form a figure B
