Can someone kindly tell me what the name of the white connector 6 pin that I am pointing to in the photo is called? It has been unsoldered and I need to find the same one to solder it, since I have broken it, i found this photo, can you tell me the model or name? I need to look for it outside because I no longer have a warranty. thank you

not sure if it is exact same
there is kind off allot different ones in market
Can you tell me one to weld on the right side for the left cams? What type of connector is it, what is it called? I only know that it has 6 pins but how is everything else? what is the name of connector? do you know any?
Could this be worth it? 6 pin vertical?
It’s CONN HEADER SMD 6POS 1.5MM by Molex
I found this part with the DigiKey mobile app.

you're sure? Look at the sides of the photo I uploaded, it has metal connections and the one you posted doesn't have anything on the sides... are you sure about that? look at the blue arrow in the photo, look at the metal side
It’s the right size. The photos in DigiKey are not always accurate. But I assure you you need the 1.5mm pitch molex. I use them all the time for the wheels. Just make sure you get the vertical fitting
do you have a link? or is it the link you uploaded in the other post?
I would like to double check as I have been caught out getting the wrong way round before. I’m away until. Monday will check my stock when back - I can send you one if needed. I’m in the Uk though
if it's 1,5 then ZH 1,5mm 6p Vertical
but you can measure self between legs if either its a 1,5mm or 2mm
Ok just coming back as promised on this...
They are definitely 1.5mm pitch (space between pins and legs).
It gets a bit confusing because Molex changed model numbers and although you can get them with the metal on the side most don't have it and it's not needed. Indeed newer Fanatec wheels don't have the metal. Looking at wheels I have here the Formula V2 has metal the E-Sports V2 does not.
So this is 100% the part I use all the time 0874380643 Molex | Connectors, Interconnects | DigiKey
It's the right pitch and plug type. I use them on my Emulator product and also on cables for the Fanatec APM and Shifters. So I know for sure that they fit both to the wheel PCB and the shifter plug.
Not sure if it comes on the posts but i'm Simon from Sim Racing Machines in the UK, so please trust that I know what i'm talking about here and hope it helps
I have about 100 of these here in the workshop if of help.
I used SRM kits to convert my legacy 918 wheel to QR2 and add mag shifters - excellent stuff - you can trust his expertise
Thank you very much friends for the help and comments
you know user could just solder those wires to there one by one and no one cares if product is already out off warranty
that Molex is different one even tho it looks similar
