Any idea what this connector is?
« on: May 30, 2022, 01:32:59 pm »
My cabinet is a Lordsvale Playscene 20 and Im in the process of building a new control panel for it.

The existing control panel connects to the wiring loop via the connector below.  Since I've managed to avoid chopping up the wiring loom I'm trying to find another socket for my replacement panel.  Can anyone help identift it?

There are 24 pins arranged as 4 rows of 6 pins, in a 3.96mm spaced grid.  It reminds me of a molex hard drive power connector with more pins, but molex make a million and 1 plugs...

Just to update this, if anyone is looking for a control panel connector for these cabinets in the future, it's an ITT CANNON - TST24PA00.  I've got the plastic connector housing now, just got to take out a small mortgage for the 24 gold plated pins...

One of the male pins on your original connector (in pic) has been pushed down, prob won't make good connection, guess you noticed already.
Check out my completed projects!

Yes I did - it's actually the ground pin so nothing works when it's not connected properly...
