The Molex version looks like it has round pins; I'd recommend rectangular
pins with your matching connector, they're prone to overheat at the best of times.

Hi,
for rebuilding a circuit, I'm in need of 3 old connectors used on the
original board.
The header on the board appears to be a Molex KK 396 series header. The
plug on the wiring harness is an AMP MTA-156 series IDC connector. I'm not
sure why they mixed and matched connectors, but they both use the same
size pins with .156" spacing. The Molex header might retain the plug
better than the AMP header due to the friction lock.
