Default 1996 LS400 AFM / MAF Connector

My parents have a 1996 LS400 (soon to be for sale) and somehow / someway the wires from the connector to the AFM / MAF meter were pulled/chewed close to the end that plugs into the meter - so close it is not able to be spliced or repaired.

Does anyone know if you can buy just the connector/pigtail without buying the entire eng. harness? Trying to get vehicle back up and running for my parents to sell.

Thanks for any info. you can offer.

I tried to get a couple connecters for my car and the dealer said they don't sell them single, only the whole harness. I paid a buck for 3 connecters at the junkyard.

Got to agree,a junk yard is the best place for something like this,demand for complete looms is pretty low so they don't usually mind you chopping out the connectors only.
If you can solder,connect the new plug to the existing loom this way, sliding some heat shrink over the wires 1st.Once all the wires are connected,heat the heat shrink to seal the joints and then retape the loom back together.
If you struggle to get the plug we have a guy here in the UK who breaks LS400s who may post one out to you.
