I have an older Craftsman Riding mower that I have to wiggle the wire connector to get it to start. The ignition switch is working properly (I checked it with a multimeter) so I think the issue has to be in the wiring connector. Is there any reason why I can't remove the wiring connector and replace the connections using female disconnects? A new wiring harness is $70 and I am looking for an alternative.

Best Answer
Yes, they went out of their way to use a standard type part so you could do that.
Those connectors do have 3 different widths, so watch out what you are buying.
