need help finding a part

I have a 1997 F350 7.5L with the E4OD transmission. I'm looking for the connector that connects to the top of the transmission shift solenoid pack.

well I just went to the Ford Dealer and they said they discontinued the part. And I also went to the Junk yard and atleast at that one they said they dont have any. they just drop the transmissions and cut an pull all the wires and throw them away.

Was your old harness bad, or was the plug just crushed/cracked?

I hope you found a matching one. You aren't getting and ATF leak to the harness are you? That will cause untimely/no shifts also. I would have ziptied the plugs together and ran with it, but it sounds like you are going about it the right way.
