We will be in touch
Morning,
So I've been trying to fix my Bosch dishwasher and replaced the heat pump. However I managed to snap off the white wiring connector to the sensor wires.
Any thoughts on what the white connector is? I need to buy another.

This pic seems to show it most clearly,and was found by searching for "bosch dishwasher ntc connector" on google. The only visual difference is that mine has 3 wires into the connector.
On the back of mine it says ph and 6.2. But googling this doesn't seem to help
Thank you
James
Molex?
It's a Bosch Dishwasher Heat Pump Sensor connector.
Does it connect on to a socket of any sort on PCB or wire, or plug onto the side of a PCB directly?
@mrmonkfinger
It connects to the heat pump socket, as per the pic below: I presume its just the female part of the male connector.

Perhaps a clearer pic:
if you've still got the connector you might find you just need to buy pins and you can reuse the plastic part. From the picture it looks like the top comes off the connector (will likely just be clipped in place). The pins could be crimp fit or if you are lucky the type where pushing the cable in cuts the insulation.
I'd suggest looking at the molex catalog https://www.molex.com/molex/products/group/connectors but it can be time consuming finding what you need
Can’t tell anything from the links you’ve posted (plus last one is broken)
Can you not just post a decent photo of the actual part (even if it’s in 2 bits!)
Worst case scenario maybe you could solder the connection on, or use something like DuPont-style jumper cables with a bit of thread lock?
Attempting to link pics. Please forgive me for the condition of the connector. I was attempting to use pliers to recrimp, but didn't go too well.

Yikes! So much for my suggestion.
Joking aside, not all connectors are standard parts. Proprietary plugs are pretty common, it might not have a name beyond what mrmonkfinger posited previously.
@j4mesj4mes this plugs into the 2nd part of the the slot in the 1st pic? The half on the left with the 3 vertical spade terminal things is something else entirely?
@zilog6128 yes in my first photobucket pic, yes correct. That socket is actually two sockets side by side. A big one and a little one (the little one being the one I broke)
Looking at the Bosch picture it looks like you've got a row of large spade connectors next to a row of small ones. In your position I'd just use spade connectors.
The connectors on the left are fine as the plug for that is unbroken. But the small ones, how would I get them to stay in contact with the contacts? The broken connector was a U shape, so both sides went over the contacts, holding it in place?
