Question Circuit Diagram Issue

Does anyone know of a document that shows the actual connectors used in the AM cars? The circuit diagrams don't have tables showing the connectors like the ones for my Porsche have and that's very disappointing.

I'd like to make connections to systems in my car without cutting or splicing wires, but it's hard to do that without knowing what the connectors are. The only option I see at this point is to just take things apart to try to ascertain what connectors are used.

Are there any diagrams from AM that I don't have yet that would show me the connector types so I don't have to tear my car apart to get that information?

Haha.....you...are...!

AM tech's have been requesting connectors views since the VH platform was born. There's some failed projects AM commenced in Gaydon that were never finished so the unimportant unknown connectors were never logged. The images that are available are the common ones most interacted or shared on Rapide but do not show pin/lead/cavity/connector part numbers, for those items your better sourcing from JLR (that's what I did for years).

Well... I can tell you this...

The connectors on the tail lights on the harness side are TE/AMP/TYCO (Right side is1-965424-1), part of their TIMER series, and theoretically are still available.

The connectors on the ASM buttons on the dash are also TE/AMP, but are no longer manufactured. (7-1419169-0 is the Reverse button, for example.)
