Automotive connectors are electrical connectors and interconnect assemblies designed specifically for use in automobile systems such as ignition, sensor feedback and control, safety, and power systems. Automotive connectors are critical in today’s cars to connect switches, wires, lights, electric motors, sensors, computers and plugs. Whenever wires attach to a car component that might have to be removed, an automotive electrical connector (also called an automotive wiring connector) must be present to allow for the easy removal and replacement of that part. Automotive connectors also include an automotive connector housing, which is used to mount multiple wires and conductive terminals. A single automotive connector can connect 100 wires or more.

Multiple electrical wires and connectors can be combined in a component called an automotive connector harness. An automotive connector harness provides the basic support for the car’s electronic system and is sometimes called the nervous system of a car. Automotive connectors can connect a harness with another harness or a harness with other electrical components. A battery connector is a plug used on battery-powered vehicles to connect the battery to the charging station (a system that enables the alternator to generate electrical current to operate the vehicle). Fuses are an important part of a car’s electrical system to prevent electrical shorts and power overloads. An automotive panel fuse box contains the fuses that protect the car’s electrical circuits. Most cars have two fuse boxes, one in the engine compartment and a second in the driving compartment.
