ATX Electronics don't match up between years, help needed.

[Dbeltran24]

Here's my issue. I'm swapping my current '99 ATX for an older year ATX. Not sure what year. I've swapped most of the external ATX electronics over, but have a few that aren't the same.

First off is this part. From my '99 atx. I broke the gear removing it. Need a exact replacement. Anyone have one they are willing to sell?


This is the part that came out of the spare ATX. Unfortunately the connections are different and I can't use it with my harness.


Next issues are two of the connections pictured below.

The connector in the large circle on the right differs between the two ATXs. I think I can remove the snap ring that holds the large circle in place and swap the two parts. Can anyone confirm this?

Also the Connector on the bottom left are different. The 99 has a two prong plug and the spare has a 3 wire cable with a triangular 3 prong plug. How can I swap the 99 components over?

Sorry for the poor quality pics. I can take better pics if needed.

OK, I have what you're looking for somewhere in the garage, but I also have another solution. I have new and in the box a MB622090 from Mitsubishi.
I was doing just what you did but in reverse. I needed the gear that the speedometer cable connected to, not the elecrtical sensor. After talking to Mitsubishi, I was convinced this was what I needed, but it was just the exact opposite. This part screws into the 2nd gear you showed, to turn it into the electronic sensor you showed as the one you need.
It goes for like $90, I'd let you have it for $65 shipped.
If that's too steep, I can look for the used one in the garage in the morning.

The less I have to spend the better. Mind looking for the used one. From what others have told me, this part seldomly needs to be replaced and usually lasts the life of the car. (except in my case, since I broke it during the removal).

How much for the used one?

I'll look in the morning, know I have it somewhere. How's $30 shipped sound?

[Dbeltran24]

Sounds good to me. pm me your paypal address, once you find it. Thanks

Any idea what I should do about the other two connectors that don't match?

The transmission computers are different at a certain point over the years also. I know I think they changed in 93 or 94 so that's something to look into also. If you're in that range I can look up the exact difference but I fried a TCU putting an older transmission into a newer car.

Thanks for the tip. I got the ATX from a member on here. I PM'ed him and am waiting for a response as to what year it was from.

K, that gear was easier to find than I thought it would be, but alas, is appears to have a shorter shaft than the one you need. Didn't notice your's in an ATX, and the one I have is for a manual tranny. I guess my only solution for you would be the new one, as that would fit what came out of the older trans. Good luck, whatever you decide.
If it turns out you need a trans computer, let me know. I may have one to work with your trans.

I could do $60 shipped on the new one, if that would help.
