I'm looking for parts to repair my Donkey Kong control panel wiring harness. Specifically the male pins on the CP connector (see image).

I know un-hacked harnesses are hard to find, but I'm sure there are folks out there with broken harnesses -- with pins missing (like mine).

I'm very interested in buying your broken DK, or DK Jr CP harness, so long as there at least one unbroken pin on your connector. When I'm finished, if I have extra pins, I'll share them with the group.

Please let me know if you can help.

Thanks,
Pete

Mike's Arcade Eshop sells the pins.

I emailed Mike about that and he said that the connector he sells isn't the same. I tried asking if the pins themselves were compatible, but didn't get a good answer.

Do you know if this is the correct and compatible pin:

I hate to buy a $0.22 pin (plus $7 shipping) to find out it is too big.

He just stole the picture from Jameco.com :)
The pins are only compatible with the housings I listed, not the original housings.
 
Not sure if he still has any but timberterror did have some connectors and pins left over from his DK cp wiring harness build. If it's just the cp wiring I would see if timberterror still has any of the repro harnesses. They were great quality and reasonably priced. I bought pins because someone had hacked the other side of my harness. The part that was not reproed.
 
The pins are correct. I replaced one on my own harness a few months ago. The $7 shipping on a .22 cent pin is a killer, though!

Thanks everyone for the leads.

Call me nuts, but I really wanted to keep the original connector. And thanks to ArcRevival and his broken harness, I should be able to make that happen. This will work out great!

If I have extra pins, I'll make them avaialable for others.
