Hi there
I have a Bosch dishwasher model SGE68U55UC/D5 (the Quiet Plus dB44A) ADA model.
I broke the white plastic molex connector that runs two white wires between the handle sensor and the rest of the wire harness. This is the wire harness inside the door not the cables inside the Fascia control panel above it. In so doing, I also managed to pull the white wires from the molex.

I've ordered a new harness since I cant find the right connector anywhere, or even the small part of the harness I need.

For details, Click on the photos of the white molex, gray Handle Sensor and detached white wires. Especially the one of my thigh :) to see the broken molex.

Before I install the entire harness:
1. Any ideas as to where I might find a tiny 2-pin Molex connector? Or is this proprietary to Bosch?
2. What is the best tool to remove and replace the harness without breaking more Molex connectors and pulling out the pins?
3. What is the best tool for replacing the pins if I do pull them out of the connectors?
4. A guy at Lowes suggested I just use a hot glue gun to reattach the remaining connector and wires. He also said the glue would act as insulation. Any thoughts?

Thanks so much!
