ABS connector corrosion on Honda CRV?

[dobbslc]

I think this will go well with the "older cars in the UK" thread here as this CRV has done nearly 200k!
I have a friend who's CRV has thrown a load of ABS and traction control lights on the dash, I checked it with my code reader and it came up with faults for the rear left wheel speed sensor so I replaced that but it's made no difference.
I then tried reading the live data (I know I should have done that first ) and it shows a spike in the reading on that wheel over bumps so I'm now wondering if it's got a bad plug or wire.
When I looked closer I saw the green 'stuff' on the loom side connector but can't tell if it's green corrosion or the rubber seal that's rotted away.
I suppose either way it needs replacing so where can I get one?
I know someone here has posted a place that does all this kind of electrical stuff but I can remember where.
Any help appreciated.

if its a low value car cut it out and solder it up /or new random connector thats readily available

Or maybe auto-connectors.co.uk?

I usually use https://www.auto-click.co.uk/

Going by the shape, I'd say it's probably a Sumitomo connector, but if you email Auto Click a couple photos (one of the connector face so you can see the keys/slots clearly), they're pretty good at confirming what you need.
I'd also strongly advise you order pigtails to go with the connector, as they save a lot of hassle especially if you don't have suitable terminal crimping pliers.

a squirt of acf50 will keep it going for years ,,,,

You could pull the innards out...then solder it up and leave the connector in place .

The "green stuff" around the wires is probably the silicone seals that push in after the pin itself is seated ?

These connectors are also used on Toyota and Lexus. Don't know who makes them though.

IMO a lot of electrical failures on older vehicles could be prevented by breaking an making the connections every couple of years, which is what I try to do.
