On step 8, page 46-12, I inserted wires WH-J153 and WH-J152 in the wrong
positions in the connector. Now I need to remove the pins and switch their
positions.

Question is how do you remove them? I've removed d sub pins using the
red & white tool from SteinAir, but these pins are larger diameter and I'm
just not sure sure how to remove them. I believe these pins are called
"Molex" pins but I could be wrong.

Any ideas? Thanks....

Walt,

If you have some brass tubing the right diameter to just slip over the pin, you can pop em out with it.

Even a very small micro screwdriver can reach down in there beside the pin and release the catch but be careful not to bend or break the catch.

A telescoping antenna from a portable radio has a few sizes of brass tubing nestled inside of each other. Don't you always need something after you have thrown it out? :D

Just in the nick of time Joe, look what was on my work table waiting to get tossed into the trash! I just knew there was something on them I could use!

Actually I used a very small jeweler's screwdriver to push the barb down and the connector pin slide right out.

Thanks
