Default Intro/wiring help

Hey I’m new to the forum not sure where to post this. I have a 2001 Polaris sportsman 500 6x6. The battery isn’t charging and found an issue in the wiring coming off of the rectifier but I cannot find the connector that I need. I have pictures just can’t find it anywhere online so I figured I’d ask you guys. It’s this connector (below) that has been corroded and needs replaced. Anyone know where I can find one or what it’s called?

Welcome to the forums.

I moved this over to the Polaris section where you should get more replies.

Is that a red and white wire attached to it? Can't see that pairing in the schematic.

Thanks for moving it into this. It’s a red and a brown going into it and two browns and one red coming out of it.

Couldn't tell if it was the color or just dusty.

If you can find a connector that is similar, I would think that would work. Make sure you have enough wire to splice and seal it before you cut anything. As long as the right wires are mated, the electricity won't know what type of connector it went through.

I doubt you will find exact replacement anywhere , just go to any automotive parts store and get a pair of male / female 12 awg connectors , like these on ebay -
