A/C Compressor Cut-Off Switch Connector

Standard Ignition S-2198 is a direct replacement A/C compressor cut-off switch harness connector for repairing damaged HVAC wiring without replacing the full harness. It uses a 4-terminal female connector with male terminals and is built for reliable electrical fit, form, and function.

  • 4 terminal and 4 wire configuration
  • Terminal materials include copper alloy, brass, and phosphor bronze

Product Details

Standard Ignition S-2198 is made for HVAC electrical repair where the original connector has heat damage, corrosion, broken locking tabs, or worn terminals. This connector supports a cost-effective repair by allowing replacement of the damaged connector only.
