ECU pin/wire removal
Anyone have any good tips on how to remove a wire/pin from the main ecu connector to another hole in the connector. Any info would be greatly
appreciated.

Most of the pins have a tang that comes out at an angle and hooks onto part of the plastic connector housing. Depending on the type, you either have
to depress that tang or the plastic part of the housing from the front or rear of the connector whilst pulling on the pin/wire. I normally use a
jewelers screwdriver to do this but have found a steel wire sometimes works as well.
