Plug and Pins Only – Matching Set of Deutsch DT-2 Connectors (DT06-2S + DT04-2P) – (13 Amp)

The Universal Standard for 2-Wire Automotive Circuits

The Deutsch DT-2 Connector Set is arguably the most essential connector in the automotive world. From fuel injectors to intake air temperature sensors, the 2-pin DT connector is the universal language of 12V performance wiring. Rated for 13 Amps, this connector handles both power and signal circuits with ease. This "Plug and Pins Only" kit allows you to build professional-grade harnesses from scratch, ensuring perfect wire lengths and secure terminations without the failure points associated with splicing into pre-made pigtails.

Engineering Deep-Dive: The Perfect Circuit

The DT-2 creates a secure, sealed link for two-wire circuits. Its design incorporates a thermoplastic housing with a rugged latch that resists disengagement from vibration. The internal silicone seal grommet accommodates wire insulation diameters from 2.24mm to 3.68mm, creating a watertight seal around each wire. The solid copper alloy contacts (Size 16) are designed for a crimped connection that offers superior mechanical strength and electrical conductivity compared to soldered joints, which can become brittle and fail under vibration. This makes the DT-2 ideal for direct-engine mounting where heat and vibration are constant.

Operational Benefits: Versatile Reliability

Whether you are wiring a high-impedance fuel injector or a simple air temp sensor, reliability is key. The DT-2’s IP67 rating ensures that water, oil, and dust cannot penetrate the connection, preventing corrosion and short circuits. The tactile click of the locking mechanism provides instant feedback that the connection is secure. For race teams and mechanics, the ability to quickly disconnect and reconnect components without worrying about degrading the terminal tension is a significant advantage.

Fitment and Application Scope

The 2-pin DT connector is ubiquitous in:

• Fuel Injectors: Many aftermarket and some OEM injectors (e.g., rigid mount).
• Temperature Sensors: Air (IAT) and Coolant (CLT/ECT) sensors.
• Solenoids: Boost control, VVT, and nitrous solenoids.
• Lighting: Marker lights and auxiliary LEDs.
• Pumps: Low-current fluid pumps.

Technical Specifications

Summary & Includes

The HT-031112 Kit is the fundamental building block of any performance wiring harness. It delivers sealed, secure connectivity for the most common automotive circuits.

Includes:

• 1 x DT04-2P Connector (Receptacle)
• 1 x DT06-2S Connector (Plug)
• 2 x Wedge Locks
• 4 x Solid Contacts (2 Pins + 2 Sockets)

Pro Tip: Ensure your crimp tool is calibrated for Size 16 solid contacts. An improper crimp is the #1 cause of connector failure.
