    Steve or Brian-

    What type and size female connectors that plug into the male fuse box pins do you recommend as replacements? Do the old female connectors push out of the plastic (e.g., "K", "Y") connectors from the front or back? After one year, I am finally getting around to doing something with these. I will soon post the other stuff I've done (solving the A/C blower motor switch problem and hot start problem). I've just been really busy working a lot.

    I don't ;). Seriously, for the high current circuits, I added a high current capable connection directly from the male output tab on the relay to the corresponding wire leaving the white connector (completely bypassing the PWB and stock connector) -- if you search on "TR white connector" you should get threads with pictures/discussion of what I've done and what others have done too.

    They do come out backwards from the white plastic.

    I have looked high and low and except for a very brief period from one of the specialty automotive suppliers, have never found a source other than Ferrari for either the white plugs or the crimp on metal ends.

    As Steve said, if you are repairing one of the high load circuts do not use the OE parts. Just take the power off the board to a remote relay. I mount them behind the board with the other components.
