I’m in need of a vintage (1970’s) Simplex 4247-2 WIRE HARNESS THAT RUNS FROM THE CABINET DOOR TO THE UPPER AND LOWER CONTROL PANELS (PLEASE SEE PICTURES}. THE PLUGS ARE BOTH 12 PINS (THE MALE ENDS THAT PLUG INTO THE FEMALE ENDS) THAT ARE ON THE UPPER AND LOWER PANELS THAT ARE INSIDE THE CABINET.
I’ve been building harnesses for my old style 2001 lately, they’re mostly mate-n-lock connectors, if you have any pics I can probably see if they’re the same ones, they used 12 and 16 pin ones on the 2001:
Here are several pictures of the inside cabinet of the 4247-2 SIMPLEX FIRE ALARM CONTROL PANELS (UPPER AND LOWER PANEL) YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE THE WIRE HARNESS ON THE LEFT SIDE.
Thank you for your response to my inquiry. The pictures you have posted of your wire harness will not work with the 4247 Simplex panel. Please see the pictures I have posted.
I know nothing about the topic manner, but I just wanted to tell OP that there’s no reason to “yell” (put half of their sentences in all-caps).
Ah - you are right, those are different connectors. Some type of triple-row 12 pin.
Do you have any pictures of one of them disconnected? Like the ends of the connectors? There’s a few series of molex connectors this could be, the MLX series first comes to mind which looks like this in 12 pins:
there is also this style of molex here:
there’s other things it could be as well though
I believe this is Old School Fire Alarms, he always writes like that.
You might be right given the info on their profile, though exactly why he writes like that aside from saving time from not having to capitalize any letters I can’t imagine.
Please be advised that I have a very old keyboard tied to my computer and sometimes the cap button sticks. Just because someone utilizes their cap button or types with all capital letters does not necessarily mean or indicate that they are “yelling”. Some people type with all capital letters to simply get someone’s attention or to emphasize a subject matter.
Please be advised that I was able to find the 12 pin (male end) connectors I was looking for. I want to thank you again for taking the time to respond to my inquiry, most appreciated.
Oh, okay, sorry, didn’t know. Yeah, but that’s how I put it just because that’s what I’m “used to” in a sense, that’s all. Anyway…
Your apology is accepted but not necessary. We all can and do interpret things differently from time to time. Best wishes to you and yours.
