    Hi everyone.

    I’ve looked around and my google-foo is weak today. Anyone know how to remove the pins out of the radio harness? Had a wire separate from pin in one of the plugs and needs to be replaced. Having a heck of a time. All help is welcome

    There is a little tool you can buy that you insert into the connector wehich pushes in on the locking pins and allows you to slide the pin out of the connector. There are a couple different sizes. I have cheated a few times with a dental pick or two but it tends to be a pita.

    By any chance do you have a link for this tool?
