As in the heading, what is the inner housing connector (and pins) part numbers for the Astro City PSU DC OUT 2 plug, and which manufacturer makes them?



It's the 2x3 plug that appears unused in most Astro cabs, front row, far left.

Have you got a reference/picture?

This is as close as I could find. I don't have a camera, unfortunately.

It's the one above the "00" in the serial number on the PSU and behind the big black wire on the left, so you can't see it well.

Here's a reference to the part I'm looking for (I think - it appears to have all the necessary features): Image

Can anyone verify (or deny) that this is the part?

Yes. Don't forget the contacts, without them it's just a useless piece of plastic.

One can get free samples of these straight from the manufacturer as well.



Try this experiment - create an order on Giz10p for one of those connectors and associated pins. Put your shipping address as being in the US.
