MK4 PCB Connector type

Hey.
Do any of you know the connector that are used on the new MK4 PCB?

I like to make a splitter so i can have a extruder more to pulling the filament.
I had that on my MK3 and works great and gives a better print, when the print head don't have to pull the filament.
Also because i have my filament in a dry box with ½meter of PTFE tube to the printer, so it's a bit hard to pull, so a extra extruder fix this problem on my MK3.

But i can't fint anywhere what does connector are so i can order some and make a splitter.

Pretty sure that's a Molex CLIK-Mate connector.

Digging a little deeper the Molex "series is 503-149, so the part number for the Nextruder connector plug is 5031492200.

Was surprised to find that DigiKey sells fully pre-wired clik-mate connectors and also pre-terminated wires of different lengths / colors.

Example: pre-wired 8 conductor connector - series 015135 . . . full part number for 8 conductor - 0151350806

Example: pre-terminated red wire 450mm long (both ends have pin pre-installed) - series 215710 . . .  450mm length red wire - 2157102125

hi 

I saw that you both @mykal451 and @mekcreate a time ago had worked into pcb plug types on xbuddy. Might it be possible that you would be able to help me out by defining the plug types as descriped in my recent post : https://forum.prusa3d.com/forum/postid/710650/  

Example: pre-wired 8 conductor connector - series 015135 . . . full part number for 8 conductor - 0151350806

Example: pre-terminated red wire 450mm long (both ends have pin pre-installed) - series 215710 . . .  450mm length red wire - 2157102125

 

I would like to Order male - Female connector for each type to be able to make extension cable for xbuddy board. 

thanks a lot
