This weekend I put the PHEV kit back in the car. I plugged it in to charge (it had been sitting for a while) and I left it. When I came back a while later the new balancer had disconnected the charger from the pack and I could see that a few cell voltages were quite high.

Unfortunately, from sitting, I noticed the pins on the connector for the cord going from the switch up in the front of the car have gotten corroded. It looks exactly like a phone connector, but with 6 wires, not just 4. So, I have to get a new one of these (or a tool to put on a new connector). Any idea where I can get a 6 wire cable? I guess I'll try the local radio shack or best buy or something.
