Thanks, that must have been some detective work.
I can see me replacing it with a waterproof cable gland and feeding the cable up to the inverter.

I just read the part number off the connector under my binocular microscope! That way I could see that the '6' was in fact a 'G' and got the right result.
It may come to that! I was about to place an order with Digikey when I remembered that the terminals are not included. Up until this point it looked like the connectors would have been quite reasonably priced. The terminals weren't expensive either, about 4p each...I can see me replacing it with a waterproof cable gland and feeding the cable up to the inverter.
Welcome Scott, and do you mean would the 450h inverter drive the Outlander rear motor, and would it drive the RX450h rear diff? (no such thing as a GX450h).There will be others here can advise - I'm sitting back and learning! Best way to ask such questions is to start your own thread in General rather than piggyback on an existing thread I suspect...ScottS wrote: ↑Sun Mar 08, 2020 11:41 am Hi All,
I do have one question I'm hoping someone will know the answer to: I can see Damian's 450H inverter control box is capable of driving the GS450H inverter and therefore transmission. Perhaps I'm taking too simplistic a view on this, but would the 450h inverter with Damian's control board be able to drive the Outlander rear motor OK, or would I be better with the Prius Gen3 inverter with Damian's logic board?
Guessing it comes somewhat down to the resolver and winding configuration, although looks like the resolver is the same part as the Prius, right? Alternatively, would the 450h inverter drive the GX450h rear diff?
Thanks for any info, look forward to following developments!
Now that looks great, time to get this into a setup where you can start loading up the motor.
Sadly i dont expect this motor to go into any car soon. It will remain as my test bed for testing various inverters.
I've found the Hirose sample request page. I've had overall good results when requesting samples like this from companies that have special lines made to order etc. I won't be following it up myself as my motor has water damage and visible corrosion in the socket so it's going to be easier for me to simply replace it all.SciroccoEV wrote: ↑Sun Mar 08, 2020 11:42 am It's a Hirose GT18WB-14DS-HU. Digikey and Mouser both list it, but with longish lead times. I've also found it at specialist automotive connector suppliers, but also only to order.
I did take a look at that link, but unfortunately it looks like it's only for North and South America. Cable and gland does seem like a good option.Mouse wrote: ↑Wed Jul 08, 2020 2:34 pm Have you tried the samples form I linked to a couple of posts above? (You might have to register an account)
Most companies are quite generous with handing out samples in 1s and 2s and I've been able to repair odd equipment using them including a smd 50way breakout connector for the Toyota inverter board, however not tried it with this company.
Personally I'm not going down that route as the connector on my motor is water damaged and I'm going to replace it with a gland and cable into the motor as I cant justify replacing both and keeping it standard for the sake of it.
Oh that's a disappointment, I didn't take it that far and just assumed it was global.
How many of us want connectors for these we could do a lot of conversions with 10k pinsSciroccoEV wrote: ↑Wed Jul 08, 2020 5:32 pm As previously stated, the connector housings are available from Digikey and Mouser, however the pins are only available in multiples of 10,000.
I have it hooked up to the 48v battery in my quad bike. It's the highest voltage battery I have and it means I can also use the precharge system without having to make one up for it.
Again great work, perhaps you can help me.
I'll take a look tomorrow when I am there and get back to you on that. I can't remember off the top of my head.Bram wrote: ↑Fri Aug 07, 2020 11:30 am

I Also hookup up my Outlander rear motor and Gen2 inverter on FOC, but struggling to get the resolverd wired correctly.
today the motor gives a shock one time and then inverter starts to make sound with drawing a lot of current from battery. I used the resolver pinout from Arber333.
How to determine the + and - so to say (or the right phasing) about the resolver?
for example did you tight green and yellow together on pin 2 or red and blue together on pin 2?
