41chevy Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 I went to Napa and got this Weather Pack, Pack-Con terminal removal tool set. Ran as I remember about $12.00 It was made by Lisle Quote "OPERTUNITY IS MISSED BY MOST PEOPLE BECAUSE IT IS DRESSED IN OVERALLS AND LOOKS LIKE WORK" Thomas Edison “Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely, in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting ‘Holy shit, what a ride!’” P.T.CHESHIRE Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/51220-ecu-plug-rebuild-help/#findComment-381187 Share on other sites More sharing options...
steeler Posted September 30, 2017 Author Share Posted September 30, 2017 I've got some terminal tools, maybe it's my bad eyesight, but I can't see how to unlock them.

41chevy Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 (edited) It's been awhile since I removed a pin and I don't have those connectors in front of me, but I'm pretty sure you slide the tool in the small portion of the hole, then lightly pry up towards the large part of the hole while lightly tugging on the wire from the back. Once you find the "sweet spot" they will be very easy to remove. The Weather Pack barrel pins, slide the tool over the pin as you put a small bit of pressure on the back of the pin. Push the tool in and wiggle the pin out. Like I said it's been a while. Some of the older terminals have a small plastic "wedge" to lock the terminal into connector.
