Standard Ignition S-1418 Engine Variable Valve Timing (VVT) Solenoid Connector

Engine VVT Solenoid Connector for GM Applications

Standard Ignition S-1418 is an engine variable valve timing solenoid connector built for repair work on GM vehicles that use a 2-terminal female pin socket interface. It is a direct-fit electrical connector solution for restoring signal integrity at the solenoid or sensor connection point on applications such as Chevrolet Silverado, GMC Sierra, and Chevrolet Malibu.

Key Features

• Male connector housing with 2 female pin socket terminals
• 16-inch harness length for repair and splice-in service
• Includes butt splices for wire repair connections
• Two-wire design for straightforward circuit restoration
• Built with high-grade materials for consistent conductivity
• Standard Ignition part number S-1418

Detailed Description

Standard Ignition S-1418 is engineered as a replacement engine VVT solenoid connector for a wide range of GM platforms, including Chevrolet Silverado 1500, Silverado 2500 HD, Tahoe, Suburban, Camaro, and GMC Sierra and Yukon models. It also cross-references 1P2581 for the same application. The connector is designed to address worn, damaged, or heat-affected electrical connections where the original plug no longer maintains a stable circuit. Standard Ignition uses durable materials and application-focused engineering to support reliable conductivity and a secure connection at the engine harness.

What It Helps Repair

• Broken or brittle connector housings at the VVT solenoid or magnet sensor
• Intermittent electrical contact caused by terminal wear or corrosion
• Harness damage near the engine connector from heat and vibration
• Fault codes related to variable valve timing circuit interruption
• Rough running or drivability issues tied to poor sensor or solenoid connection

Installation Notes and Tips

Use this connector on the vehicle-specific engine harness side where the original connector has failed. Verify terminal style, wire count, and connector gender before splicing. The 16-inch harness provides working length for repair routing, and the included butt splices support a secure wire-to-wire connection when replacing the damaged pigtail. Confirm the application against the vehicle’s original connector layout before installation.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition develops pigtails and sockets using high-grade materials and long-standing electrical component engineering focused on technician needs. S-1418 is built to restore dependable connection quality on demanding engine electrical repairs across Chevrolet, GMC, Buick, Cadillac, Pontiac, Saturn, and Hummer applications.
