How To Properly Crimp Molex Pins Using Molex Crimper

[@adamkingry6862]

This was extremely helpful. There is nothing more irritating than a shaking camera 10 miles away from the action, with someone saying "put this here." Put what where?! All I see are hands moving. Ha ha. The zoom was sharp, detailed, and on target. Bravo.

Thanks!

I learned more from this video than anything else in the past 4 months of struggling to crimp pins.

[@mondavou9408]

Good job. Real good camera and focus. Helpful.

[@stuartanderson-nw9yi]

"I learned more from this video…” is right! You saved me lots of time (money, wire, pins frustration, worry about the quality of my work…) Thanks very much!

[@trucker8084]

I have one of these tools (4Years) and never knew it was for molex pins! Great video!!!

[@Rubyfire76]

Well done vid!!!! One of the few people people that know how to teach. Very helpful. Very informative. Much appreciated sharing your knowledge. Thank you.

[@DigitalConfusion]

This man taught me everything I know about crimping.

[@Yoeddy1]

Best tutorial I’ve ever seen on crimping! Thanks, Mike!

[@encoresarcade]

What he said….squared. Ty

[@davidschmoll5583]

Thank you for showing us how. Neatness counts!

[@splugereport]

Dude like every one of your videos is super helpful! Thanks.

[@kilotangoxray]

Perfect timing - just needed to do this to a bunch of yoke connectors

[@Arcade_Alex]

Nice tutorial! After getting a crimping tool I said goodbye to pliers 😎

I have to connect a 72 volt 50 amp e scooter motor controller, this video was very helpful

[@dime666bag]

Flippin awesome tutorial sir !

[@atrain818]

Thanks! I am attempting to put a new connector on my continental circuit cabinet, but was confused by the braided wire that were in with the ground terminal. Guess they aren't really needed

[@MikesArcadeMonitorRepair]

You’re welcome!

[@atrain818]

@@MikesArcadeMonitorRepair the current one goes red in 1. Green in 2. Black in 3. Brown in 4. Then white in 10. Is that OK? The monitor and colors look fine

[@atrain818]

The molex just needs to be replaced because it seems like it's worn out. Or the pins are worn

[@MikesArcadeMonitorRepair]

If the image looks normal, I’d say you’re fine.

[@brianc9642]

Good, helpful vid, one thought I would add. Probably universal, but my crimper die has a little step in it for the fatter insulation end of the terminal, thus the terminal only correctly loads in the die one way. Something to look for.

[@ShawkingIT]

This was helpful! Thank you.

[@stefanthurm5475]

Thanks for the awesome and informative videos! Quick question, what is the correct plastic molex connector to use on these?

[@MikesArcadeMonitorRepair]

Check the video description.

[@chrisdenicola4336]

So if I was making a custom wire from rca to molex, should I just chop the shield/ground off of the wire when I crimp the molex end?

[@MikesArcadeMonitorRepair]

Not sure I understand. You want to terminate the ground at each end.

[@Mike-ox1hs]

This was vary informative, thank you.

[@mostlymoparih5682]

Good video. Have you ever used a Molex HTR 2445A crimper? Do you know what it is used for? Thanks.

[@davidpowell5247]

What make model stripper and crimper are you using?

[@MikesArcadeMonitorRepair]

I apologize but I can’t say. I picked up the crimpers at a pinball expo and I got the strippers off the Snap-On truck at work.

[@operationrestore3308]

Thanks big guy! Will theese work for mk kick harness? Meaning the plastic part and the steel clips

[@johnegan4826]

where can i get that crimper

[@CasaMcKansy]

Very helpful, bless you!

[@Ajaxaxxess]

This is great! Simple and straight forward. Thank you! I have anout 60 to do on 2 pairs of 15 pin molex's.

[@Mechanix5424]

I always just solder them then crimp them down with plyers. I don't have one of those molex crimpers.

[@Mechanix5424]

I now have molex crimpers thanks to this video.

[@ottootto6396]

Get outta here medusa lol. Do you know where I can find those brackets for the crimp tool? Or what they're called?

[@MikesArcadeMonitorRepair]

Brackets? Can you be more specific?

[@ottootto6396]

@@MikesArcadeMonitorRepair The part that crimps the connector to the cable. Looks like they're attached with some bolts so I am wondering if I can just buy those things and put them on my tool instead of buying an entirely new tool

[@maccurtinequipmentservice8915]

Thank you for this! What specific crimper tool are you using? It looks like a ratcheting type that crimps both parts at once. Thank you

[@MikesArcadeMonitorRepair]

Correct. I got it from an arcade expo. I’ll have to see if I can find it online and let you know.

[@scottwellington1969]
