2006 325i with 132K. Attempted to activate the coolant flush sequence before buying a new pump and thermo, but it never activated, so I bought parts (Tischer is the cheapest). I bought them locally so I could get on the road. Still saved 15% over retail, but still paid over $100 more than if I would have bought on line.
In the process of re-installing everything but ran into a problem when I broke a connector. The Pump works and the flush sequence started, so I'm confident that my original problem is now resolved. But...
I broke the locking tab off of the female electrical connector that connects to the WP. What should I do? I've tried finding the connector everywhere on-line, looked at numerous schematics at Tischer and SouthAltlantBMWParts, but cannot find a part number.
Should I tape it? Glue it? Any suggestions?
