ECM5554-112 Connectors

This section is for the Visteon built ECM5554-112 controller using the Molex CMC product line

Connector Change (Matte versus Gel)

Back in 2008 Molex decided to only promote the matte seal parts for all new designs. This decision was made due to the superior performance of the matte seal versus the gel seal. However, customers that were using the gel seal parts can continue to do so. Molex will continue to support both the gel and matte seal versions in the future. The bottom line is that if your customers want to continue using the gel seal version and square MOX terminals they can continue to do so.

Does the ECM5554-112 Connector System require plugs on unused pins?

The Woodward supplied connector kit does not include nor require any plugs. The old connecting system, the Gel seal, did not require plugs. The new system, the Matte, does require the plugs.

Environmental Rating

IPx9k rating and 500 mbar. This applies for only the Matte seal, not the gel.

Matte Versus Gel in the MotoHawk Connector Kit

The current Woodward connector kit, part number ASM-CON-042, uses the Gel Seal. Mercury Marine and Woodward have not converted to the Matte seal. However, New Eagle maintains both matte seal and gel seal parts in its inventory. When we exhaust our inventory of Woodward-supplied connector kits, we will start assembling connector kits with our inventory of matte seal parts. Any concerns on interoperability should be directed to New Eagle Support.

Square versus round pins

matte sealed plastic plugs are only used with matte sealed connector pins. This should be clear since matte sealed pins are round, while the gel sealed pins are square.
