- While depressing the lock, twist and remove the connector from the component.
- Locate the terminal position assurance (TPA).
- Use a small flat-blade tool to push the TPA until it bottoms out.
- Use the J-38125-28 tool to release the terminals by inserting the tool into the terminal cavity as shown in the graphic.
- While holding the removal tool in place, gently pull the wire out of the back of the connector. Always remember never use force when pulling a terminal out of a connector.
- Repair the terminal by following the Repairing Connector Terminals (Terminated Lead Repair) Repairing Connector Terminals (Terminal Repair) procedure.
NOTE:
The TPA cannot be removed from the connector while there are terminals present in the connector body.
