Removing driver side mirror wiring question
Could someone tell me how to get these wires out of the connector without destroying them? Is there a special tool? Thanks

For future post readers.....using a small diameter rod or punch... I believe you carefully push each barrel connector out (towards wires) one at a time.
Correct?? Thats how you did it right? |

Molex pin extraction tool. You are pushing the female "pins" out of the connector toward the wires. The pins are held in by small barbs that are sticking out of the OD of the pin into the plastic connector. The pin extraction tool goes around the OD and compresses the pins, then the center plunger pushes them out. They are still a PITA to do... Be patient and wiggle away... Cooper |
