Removing cable terminals with locking tabs: Notes
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 8 other vehicles, including the 2006 Volvo S80, 2005 Volvo S80, 2004 Volvo S80, 2003 Volvo S80, and 2002 Volvo S80. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
If the receptacle housing has a secondary locking, this must be in the open position. Always push the cable terminal forward in the cavity first. Push it towards the connector side of the receptacle housing before inserting the terminal removal tool.
The locking tab secures the cable terminal
The illustration shows the location of the cable terminal in the housing with the locking tab (the primary locking) held by a catch in the cavity.
NOTE:
The text describes, and the illustration shows, cable terminals with a locking tab. The same principle also applies to cable terminals with two locking tabs.
