I have a regular 3 pin box connector and a 2 pin on my tractor and the box has a little latch on the inside to catch the a hole on the pin like the latch you are showing but my box is different. my box is old and crumbling apart, my pins connected to the wire is in great shape. My question is what type of 2 and 3 pin box do I need to replace my bad ones.my box is the square type with a push on the out side to release the male side from the female side like those on most vehicles. all the ones I see are the type where the pin has a little piece that sticks up to latch in box. I need the latch in the box. What do they call this type of box----Thank you

Shortest video with cutaway demostration. I award you a KZbin Emmy

[@gofast228]

8 years later you're video posting showing a cutaway section solved my problem. Had 11 of 12 pins come out easily, but 1 frustrated me for many days. I'd try, get mad, put it down etc... your cutaway showed me that I might be able to release it from the back side, used a bobby pin and viola, pulled right out. Thanks very much for the video.

[@WiringRescue]

Some videos are just timeless! I’m glad that it helped you out! My newer videos are way cooler too if you find yourself bored and wanting more 😂. Thanks for watching!

[@sdasdagfdgfh]

Now this is how a video is done, none of the unnecessary bs and waste of time blabbering. Welldone

[@WiringRescue]

Jere Heinänen Thanks for the kind words and for watching!

[@JulioCesar--]

I was going to use a kitchen fork. But after I watched your video, I'm going to use the hair clip. Excellent video, thank you very much.

[@WiringRescue]

Excellent! I’m glad that the video helped you out! Thanks for watching!

[@Gino20202]

Incredibly HELPFUL video and less than 2 min long. Thank you for making this!

[@WiringRescue]

Gino20202 - I’m glad you liked it! Hopefully it saves you some hassle!

[@moeywill]

Thanks so much. I tried for an hour today to get a wire/pin out of a Metra type connector on my Mercedes radio today. Now I think I can figure it out. Thanks great video.

[@santoslaguna58]

Thanks for posting this. I needed to make a harness for a car stereo that is no longer available. The harness from another stereo would fit but the power/ground/ illumination were in a different order. This saved me time and money

[@WiringRescue]

santoslaguna58 - whoa! That’s amazing! I’m so glad I could help you out. Thanks for watching!

[@MarstaJNZ]

Simply & straight to the point.

[@WiringRescue]

Thanks! That was my goal!

[@miked5789]

Excellent video...just came across some of those things(actually called 'bobby pins') a few days ago while reorganizing a tool cabinet. They're also good for removing BMW ignition cylinders.

Calling this back from the dead.... Jeremy, where can i buy replacement black pin retainers. Thanks for the video.

[@WiringRescue]

I don’t have any idea where you can find those other than a junkyard. However, I probably have some. How many do you need?

[@SWTWHITEGSR]

Nice video imma buy hairpin I always end up using a pick but it’s too thick and they sell dedicated pin removal tool but they aren’t easy to use.

[@johndoe2022]

Hi what is the size of those pin connectors?

[@WiringRescue]

I wish I knew. The only thing that I can tell you is that it’s from a 90-94 Mitsubishi Eclipse ECU.

[@sousay2000]

You made that look to easy

[@WiringRescue]

Thanks! It’s easy once you get the hang of it.

napa. but amazon is the better bet.

Jean-Paul Veillon Yeah but I don't know the name of those pins. What kind of type/size they are.

[@lexiaontube]

perfect !!! thx

[@brandonjohnson8754]

Jeremy. I have a question related to this and Dsm . How do I message you? I’m having. An issue

[@WiringRescue]

Brandon Johnson - hi. You can post a question here or you could hop on the www.Hotrodcoffeeshop.com/forum and ask there. Both are fine with me!

[@adambolton9339]

what can I do if the latch snaps that holds the pin in? ones just gone in my ECU and now pins loose, is there anything I can do??

[@WiringRescue]

If I understand correctly, you could just swap all the pins over to a new yellow connector.

[@adambolton9339]

+Jeremy Nutt deffo nothing else I could do? there's so many wires in this connector and very limit space due to being a bike, the pin pushes in but is not secured

[@kngharley1994]

Nice

[@WiringRescue]

Thank you for watching!

[@DisgustedGenXr]

That looks fun on a table top but how the hell do you do that downside of a armrest housing?🤦🏻‍♂️

[@hmsailor6133]

what if it doesnt have a black pin?

[@WiringRescue]

It likely functions in a similar method inside, but just doesn't use the lock. Most of these connectors that are around this age (1991-94) are very similar.

[@hmsailor6133]

@@WiringRescue i have the version with a locking tab thats pulls-up and pushes down.

[@kelseyrenee91]

Oh my god thank you!! Now I just need to figure out how to separate the fucking thing.

[@WiringRescue]

Kelsey Pippin - I’m happy I could help! What do you mean by separate though? Maybe I can help more?

[@kelseyrenee91]

@@WiringRescue I can't seem to pull apart the housing? It could just be because it's in an awkward spot..? It's in my school bus which is a 96 so they haven't ever been separated. Needless to say with cold fingers and a flathead trying to pull the thing apart I was getting really pissed off 😅

[@WiringRescue]

@@kelseyrenee91 - haha! Cold fingers is never helpful. Each vehicle computer is a little different. For these Mitsubishi ones, you just push down the yellow tab on the top. Sometimes it helps to push the connector back Inward toward the ECU before pushing the tab down and pulling the connector Outward. When they sit that way for years, they sometimes do get stuck.

[@kelseyrenee91]

@@WiringRescue okee I will try that today, thank you!

[@hmsailor6133]

how about the connectors without a lock

[@WiringRescue]

+albert tuazon Which connectors are those? Are they on a mitsubishi harness?

[@hmsailor6133]

+Jeremy Nutt toyota. it has a plastic flip up lock

[@WiringRescue]

+albert tuazon Unfortunately, I'm not familiar with the Toyota ones. You could always go grab one at a junkyard and tear it apart to figure out how it works. Good luck!

[@hmsailor6133]

+Jeremy Nutt good idea. thanks.
