Pulling pins on the ECU plugs.

Post by adema2626 »

Couldn't find any threads so im asking how do you pull the wires from the ECU plug? I'm trying to pull them out so i can move them around.

Hard to explain, but I'll try.

First you'll have to make, or buy, a tool. A flattened Paper Clip works well. Even better is to take a 1/16 or so allen wrench and grind it flat.

The metal terminals are crimped to the wires. The terminals are held into the plastic connector with a locking tab. You need to locate the locking tab and lift it with the tool you made. As you lift give a slight tug on the wire and the terminal should pop out.

I'll try to update with a few pics in about an hour or so.
