Gold Plated Pins

Some engine control hardware has gold plated pins within the connectors and mating harness connectors to improve electrical stability for low current draw circuits and to enhance corrosion resistance. The engine control (EC) components equipped with gold plated terminals vary by vehicle application. Only replace gold plated terminals with new gold plated terminals.
