Need some Help

So long story short, I've taken the procede out of my car so I can take the car in for scheduled maintenance and a V4->V5 upgrade (Originally bought a V5 Vin Locked). As I was taking the power cable out, my friend and I snapped the contact pin connector.

So now, my poor 335i is sitting alone in my friend's backyard spot, unable to start. I basically need to remove the damaged piece and replace it with this part: 61138364835 and can be found here: http://www.ecstuning.com/Search/Glue/ES165544/... however that means my car has to stay here in DC until I get the part. The other option is soldering the old piece back on and hoping for the best. I imagine that even if it worked, it would be difficult plug back in to make it stock.

Can anyone help me located it here on a Sunday or help me cannibalize my procede harness to get my car back up and running?

Thanks guys.

I will check one more time, but looks like I don't have it. I've got what looks to be the female part which is 61138364834.

Good luck.

Edit: Sorry I don't have the male pin, only two of the female. Putting it on my list to order a couple next time I put in a parts order.

Is it the Procede harness that has a broken pin or is it your ecu harness?

If it's what I'm thinking then you should be abe to go to Radio Shack, buy a db25 style pin, buy a pin extractor/installer, pull the wire and pin in question out, affix the new pin then reinsert it. I could be terribly wrong though and not know what you are talking about. Pictures would help

The top is from the car, the bottom is from the procede harness.

Ok yeah, it's the power wire. Just gently pry the one off of the Procede and crimp it on to the stock wiring and go about your business. You'll be able to find a new one to put on the Procede at a later date

I ended up cannibalizing the procede harness. I couldn't get all of the wires out of it to make it look 100% oem look. I ended up wrapping the procede one around the OEM piece, taped it, and reassembled. It's working enough to go back to the dealership this week for some much needed maintenance.
