  5. If the connector has a nose piece, use a small flat-bladed tool to remove the nose piece by inserting the blade into the slot on the front of the connector and prying up on the nose piece.

    The nose piece covers the terminal release holes on a specific Micro 64 connector. Not all Micro 64 connectors have this nose piece and only require that the TPA be removed before the terminal can be extracted from the connector using the terminal release tool.

    IMPORTANT: Always use care when removing a terminal positive assurance (TPA) in order to avoid damaging it.
  6. Remove the TPA by inserting a small flat-bladed tool into the small slot on the TPA and pushing down until the TPA comes out of the connector. Gently pry the TPA out of the connector.
