You might find more on this on other lists or FAQ areas of Audifans.  
The 5000 and
IIRC, the 200 models used a thermal connector (Big Fuse) in this  
area  that limited
the current to the fan to prevent fires.  The main fan was electric  
as well, and all of
  them run a lot of current on medium and high speed.   It was more  
accessible, but
suffered the same corrosion problems causing circuit failure.

Other than that information, I would look at an electrical supply  
house rather than
auto supply for a suitable connector for the high current load.
