I drilled open my Sega Swing only to find the machine's harness was all chopped up and modified. I want to get the machine back to as close to factory condition as possible. I'm looking for the female connector and pins that goes into the back plane inside the for player 1 & 2. I'm also looking for anyone who can make the middle harness that the PLayer 3 & 4 plugs into, as the inside harness is pretty chopped up. If I can order the connectors I can build the harness myself.

Any help would be appreciated.

If you buy the AMP pins (TE has a really good website for ordering direct) and a good set of crimpers, you can do all this yourself, not have to wait on people and know it was done to your level of satisfaction. It's time consuming but pretty easy. Just check all your pinouts 5 times before plugging anything in.
 
Thank you for steering me in the right directions. My main hurdle was trying to identify the connectors but I think I have what I need to do the wiring myself and I now I wait for the items to arrive.

BUT I do want to share the crimpers I use for work when I need to repair ATM harnesses. My daily crimpers are the PA-09 because head is very narrow and I can crimp tiny pins with ease because I can get flush with pins. They are a bit pricey but it's literally the best crimper I have ever used.

I use the PA-21 myself. Amazon has them listed for slightly cheaper than DigiKey and of course Prime shipping.
 
Mouser typically has TE/AMP UP connectors in regular stock but it can be difficult to get the different colors. Also, you want to get the panel mount female connectors. All those holes under the control panel are for mounting them, not just running the wires through.

I recommend learning how to use sites like mouser, digikey, etc and how to decipher part numbers and data sheets and catalogs. It's a pain in the ass but it's really the only way to find this stuff. IMO searches on parts sites are terrible.

I'm not personally familiar with the Swing but looking at pictures of the control panel area it looks like it's 2 12pin and 2 9 pin, and the one on the right is 3 pin.

Thanks for this, it's awesome and I think I need to order some parts and learn how to crimp!

That being said, unless I have been doing this bass-ackwards with the wife, I think your male housing pins link is actually female and vice versa.
