Thanks Tihol, sdewitt at stx.rr.com, Louis-Alain_Richard at computerhorizons.com
and Huw. P/n 447971659B seems like the best bet from the discription but,
unfortunately, there is no picture. It is not a console harness which
eliminates
some of the part numbers. I might compare p/ns for the terminal housings
to the ones on the original harness for either confirmation or as the basis
to
build my own new harness from bits and pieces. The 186-01 drawing and
some others provide some clues in the form of mating connectors from
the big harnesses to this small harness.

Best regards,
