The Great Search: Replacement Connector for 3D Printer Sensor #TheGreatSearch #DigiKey #adafruit @DigiKey @adafruit

This week’s Great Search (video) comes from a social media request. Daniel’s 3D printer board lost one of its connectors used to connect to the Z stepper motor, at it looks like two of the legs snapped off so it isn’t easy to solder back in place.

It’s SMT, 4-pin, but of unknown make and pitch.

Let’s find out what connector it is and whether we can pick up a few replacements on DigiKey!

See the chosen part on DigiKey here.
