Terminal Removal

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 GMC Sierra, 2004 GMC Cab & Chassis Sierra, 2004 Chevrolet Silverado, and 2004 Chevrolet Cab & Chassis Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

If the terminal is visibly damaged or is suspected of having a faulty connection, the terminal should be replaced.

Follow the steps below in order to repair pull-to-seat connectors:

  1. Remove the connector position assurance (CPA) device and/or the secondary lock.
  2. Disconnect the connector from the component or separate the connectors for in-line connectors.
  3. Remove the terminal position assurance (TPA) device.
  4. Insert the proper pick or removal tool into the front of the connector body.

    IMPORTANT: On connectors with more than one terminal the service loop may not be large enough to remove the terminal and crimp on a new one. If the terminal wire does not have a large enough service loop for removal, cut the wire 5 cm (2 in) behind the connector before removal.
  6. Grasp the wire at the back of the connector body and gently push the terminal (1) out the front of the connector body (3).
