16Pin Male Black Automotive Aftermarket Connector for BMW Car 1-929463-1 – TS30230-16P-11-2 Durable Sealed Plug for Reliable Vehicle Upgrades

The TS30230-16P-11-2 is a 16-pin male black connector designed to deliver secure, long-lasting electrical connections in automotive and marine applications. As the mating counterpart to the TS30230-16P-21-2 female housing, this connector enables clean, no-cut installations for aftermarket audio systems, control modules, and auxiliary electronics—especially in BMW vehicles equipped with the 1-929463-1 interface. Its sleek black housing blends seamlessly with factory wiring, while its robust construction ensures reliable performance under vibration, moisture, and extreme temperatures. Ideal for installers and OEM suppliers alike, this mat-sealed plug supports fast, error-free integration without compromising signal integrity or system safety.

Why This Male Connector Is Essential for BMW Audio Upgrades

When upgrading the infotainment system in a BMW using the 1-929463-1 interface, maintaining compatibility with factory features is critical. The TS30230-16P-11-2 male connector allows for a true plug-and-play experience, eliminating the need for wire splicing or soldering. It preserves steering wheel controls, backup camera signals, ambient lighting synchronization, and vehicle diagnostics—all while ensuring a stable, low-resistance connection. Its black housing matches OEM aesthetics, making it ideal for discreet installations where appearance matters as much as performance.

Engineered for Harsh Vehicle Environments

Automotive Connectors must withstand constant vibration, thermal cycling, humidity, and exposure to chemicals. The TS30230-16P-11-2 meets these challenges with reinforced thermoplastic materials—either PBT+GF15% or PA66+GF30%—that resist warping, cracking, and deformation over time. These materials offer excellent flame resistance, mechanical strength, and dimensional stability, even after repeated mating cycles. Combined with corrosion-resistant copper alloy Terminals, the result is a connector that maintains optimal conductivity and contact pressure throughout its service life.

Mat-Sealed Technology for Superior Environmental Protection

Unlike standard connectors, this model features an integrated mat seal that protects each terminal cavity from water, dust, and contaminants. When a terminal is inserted, the sealing diaphragm forms a tight barrier around the conductor, preventing moisture ingress and short circuits. Unused positions remain sealed until needed, and optional sealing plugs are available to maintain protection when reconfiguring circuits. This makes the connector suitable for use in high-moisture areas such as door panels, footwells, engine bays, and marine dashboards.

Broad Application Across Vehicle Types

While commonly used in BMW audio harnesses, the TS30230-16P-11-2 is compatible with a wide range of automotive, marine, and off-road platforms. It’s frequently found in:

• Aftermarket head unit installation kits

• Factory-to-aftermarket interface adapters

• Lighting control modules

• Sensor signal distribution blocks

• Power supply extensions for UTVs and yachts

Its universal design and compatibility with industry-standard tooling make it a go-to choice for professional installers and DIY enthusiasts alike.
