i can't figure out how to pull the pins out of this plug. this is my obd2-obd1 conversion harness. i need to pull a couple of the smaller pins out. i thought you pulled them out by sticking something in from the back, but the pins are flush with the plastic, and there isn't any room for anything. i also tried pressing down on them from the front, and that didn't work either. any ideas?

 

get a paper clip and push the wire you want to unpin from the back and put the paper clip in the exposed area (bare metal) and then pull the wire free

 

ok, where exactly do i put the paper clip? front or back?

 

 

i've seen those pics before, and the wiggling isn't doing **** for me. any other tips? this is really frustrating.

 

you gotta work with it, took me a few tries but it works.

 

ahhhh finally got it. spent fucken hours trying to pull these out. you gotta put your prying tool on the metal and push up a plastic tab inside. wiggling didn't do ****.

 

Anybody know where to buy those little metal pins? I need a couple new ones..

 

Thread is 7 years old dude start a new one. but the junk yard is your best bet gram a few plugs and take the pin off carefully OR go to a audio/video place that may be up their ally.
