Title: Lucas E3 electric plug
Post by: Brandis on 12.01. 2023 22:47

I've never seen one.  My old gang in Canada used a bent wire or phono plug.  But since I'm trying to do this right, I thought I'd try to find whatever it was that plugged the wires into the dyno.
My parts book doesn't show electrical stuff.  I can't find anything on Ebay.
Maybe it just always was 2 phono plugs.

G'day Brandis.

This is the bit that holds the wire in https://draganfly.co.uk/shop/58710/sleeve-terminal/#188818 The wire is pushed in and bent back around it. (at least on mine!)
This bit holds the two wires in.

The after market pattern ones are a poor fit. Caused me a few headaches tracking down the intermittent charging on my B31.
