2010 HHR SS Adding turbo gauge to A pillar
#41
Yep. Looks like the wrong end on the donor gauge.
OR. Is the female end from the donor car still stuck on the male end that goes to the gauge ? .......hmmmmmmmm.
Here's a shot of mine for comparison:
(Yes. I got curious and pulled my A pillar to look. )

Upon a relook at the connectors I posted; they look like the GAUGE side. so go to the GM dealer and purchase one with the appropriate pins. Once you crimo the wires onto the pins you just push them into the proper hole until they click. No tool required to install.
The part numbers are mixed up. Indeed the HHR is opposite the Cobalt, the drawings are actually what is incorrect for the HHR.
female is 12089248
male is 12047786
here are the terminals on eBay $7.20/5

Thanks George!
Yours is the first picture I have seen of the correct end coming off the gauge.
A FB friend sent me a connector, but it only has three wires and I think I am going to just hit up a GM parts counter at a dealer to see what they have.

Thanks Don, those part numbers will probably come in handy as I try to get this working.

One has a "lock tab" and the other has the "tab" for it to lock into.
The OD (outside diameter) are different for both connectors.
Getting the correct pins and putting them in the correct pin locations should be all you have to do.

Cat Man. Look at the 2 pictures again. Disregard the pins and look at the plug ends.
My picture shows the female plug on the left. The male plug is on the right(goes to the gauge)
Casa's pic shows what looks to be 2 female plug ends that won't connect.
Both of ours have the same female plug on the left. His just has a non-match plug on his donor A-pillar.
At least that's how I see it.

Look at the picture you posted on your connector plugs.

Well anyway, I confirmed they are opposite Cobalt/HHR. Kind of strange, only one side is widely available and then by the 100 count. I think the male side is used for a few other things.
I am guessing the one with only 3 wire is missing the dimmer wire. So only bright baklight.
