Hello Ask Electronics community, please help me identify the name of this connector.

For context, this is from a motor scooter: Yamaha Mio M3 125. This socket connects the ECU to the wiring harness.

I wish to know how to open this socket to access the rubber/silicone seal inside, and to know that first I need to identify the name of this connector.

So anyone know what is the name of this connector?

Here are some more pictures of the connector (hover above the picture to see alt-text).

(None of the pictures are mine, I just copied them from the internet).

    There is rubber/silicone seal around the inner recess of the socket connector, which I assume is for waterproofing when connected with the male plug.

    I want to find out how to access the seal, to remove it, to replace it (just the seal).

    To be able to do so, I first need to identify the name of the socket connector so I can search for its documentation.

      It’s probably a proprietary connector made specifically for Yamaha, or Yamaha made it themselves. It’s loosely based on car connectors from what I can see, but I don’t think you’re gonna find much info about it.

      I’d just go in “guns blazing” with this thing. If there is a replacement for it and it’s fairly cheap I mean. If not, I’d try and pry the silicon off with some of my DIY tools for these sorts of situations.

        That’s the plan if I cannot find any info of this thing.
