Q1: Which terminals are compatible with the 12084891 housing?
A: This housing uses Metri-Pack 280 Series female terminals. Since it is a sealed connector, you must use terminals that accommodate the appropriate cable seal (typically for 10-12 AWG or 14-16 AWG wires) to maintain the 30A current rating and IP protection.
Q2: Can I use 12084891 for applications other than wiper motors?
