Hi all
So here is my problem, some of you may remember from ecxc. I apparently have a broken plug to the solenoid on my m226 locker, its the female end that goes into the diff that somehow broke,in this plug runs the 2 wires i need connected. I have no clue how it broke and see no other damage to any wiring, I found out because I couldn't get my locker to engage at ecxc. I've been doing some research and clearly this isn't a common issue and Nissan doesn't sell just this plug and you have buy a new diff to get a $5 plug, typical.
My questions, should I go to the dealer for warranty? I've got 49k miles so it should be covered, but then I have to deal with them and all the questions I'll get about going off road etc, which I'm willing to deal with if they fix it.
Or, try to fix it myself by searching for a new plug, or last ditch effort pull my existing plug apart and just run new wires and connect.
Any ideas or feedback would be cool, I haven't had the desire to deal with this until now, gotta do something.
