    I had a wire come out of the harness and now the dome and map lights don't work. Anyone know how to fix it? Posting this from work so sorry for the picture quality. It's just 2 wires in that one harness and one of the wires got pulled out

    New connector on the wire and insert into bigger connector and reconnect the two. You may be able to find the metal thing at Radio Shack that goes on the wire.

    Ok. I just wasn't sure on how to reconnect the wire back into the harness or what to use.

    So I'd just put the wire into the metel clip and push it back into the harness then? Easy enough. I have got to start reading up more on wiring stuff, lol. Always been my weak point

    Just tried to get the metal clip out of the connector and couldn't get it. I think I'm just gonna have to take it to a shop and see if it's something they can do in a matter of minutes versus me potentially breaking the connector

    Bump. Anyone? I know I can get a new pin to put on the wire to click it back into the connector. My problem is getting the old pin out of the connector. I can't stick a flat tip in the to unlock and wiggel the wire out cause the wire is not longer attached to the pin. I tried unlocking the pin and and using another flat tip to push the pin out but nothing. If I don't hear anything then I'm just gonna swing by Goodyear after work and see if it's something they fix in just a few minutes. Seems like an easy fix if you know what to do.
