There are two common sizes 0.093" and 0.062", you need a 3-way housing and 2x male crimp pins. That is probably 0.093" pins which would be approx 5 mm pitch = distance between hole centres on the plug. If so pinballmania sells what you need

Thanks Astyy
Happy to help
. Btw, the smaller 0.062" crimps are 3.68mm pitch on the plug. Pinballmania has both sizes. Hopefully you have the pinballinfo approved crimping tool, this is a great investment as does both common sizes of the wire-to-wire plugs and the board header plugs too.

The link below is one of the best guides to crimping - clear, simple steps. In his example its for older solid state games but principle is exactly the same for 80s/90s machines
