    I later learned that the particular housing I have had a cable gland in place of a fischer connector.

    The bicycle parts I linked to are probably the cheapest way of making certain.

      Live and learn, hey?
      So probably M16 x 1 or M16 x 1.5?

      M16 x 1.5 is a standard cable gland size - a standard off the shelf blanking plug is as on the left below, right hand one is an M12 stainless one

        The 1.5mm threads seem to fit and the officially 14mm plug I have slides easily into the hole so 16×1.5mm seems likely, yeah.
