Fog light wiring harness

My passenger fog light connecter is destroyed. Does anyone if you can buy the pigtail seperately? Can it scavenged from another car?

The fog light connctors has a prone location exposed for water, dirt and chemicals so they will corrode inside over time. But you can buy all parts to rebuild any connector on the 124. The separate items may not be so easy to locate in the EPC sometimes, but I guess you find the needed info here:

Thanks for the posts.
One of my fog lights will not illuminate and it is not the bulb.
I'll have to trouble shoot when I get the time.

Trae - it may not be the connector. Be aware that the ground contact inside the fog lamp, between the bulb and socket, can be bad over time due to oxidation. This is the same issue as on the tail lamps.

Take out the bulbs and give them and the sockets a light brush with an abrasive cloth, followed by a dash of CRC 2-26 prior to install. Then you're good for another couple of years, dependent on the climate the car lives in.

NB!! It is important to not use abrasive paper, file or do any grinding the lamp sockets. That will damage the thin galvanizing on the surface and the sockets starts corroding, rust!
