depinning at ecu?
I'm trying to pop a few pins at the ecu, but after an hour i give up. I cant get one of them out... IS there a trick to this?
I've tried doing it mostly from the front side, where the holes are, and using a pin/needle to play around and try to get the pin loose.
I can't get paper clips in through the front , they are too big

use an eyeglass screwdriver. you need a flat end. each wire ha a prong on the end. when going into the plug from the back, the prong is pushed down. once it passes a certain point the prong expands. all that you have to do is press on that prong with a flat edge from the front while pulling the wire from the back.
with all that said... don't do it.
i am assuming that you are plugging another wire into the existing hole.
cut the wires instead. that way if it all goes to ****, you can still tell where the wires were originally.
