Hi All,
I need to rearrange the wires on this AMP 12 pin connector and my hope is to simply pop out the terminal ends and leave the wires still connected and just move them to the proper pin locations and pop them back in (I might have to re-bend the metal retainer tabs).
The questions are:
Does anyone know what terminal connector this is?
How does one (me) unseat the terminal ends from the connector and what tool should be used?
..
THANKS!!!

| It *looks* like what most would call a 'molex' style connector. If the pins are made like typical molex pins, there are 'barbs' on the pins, instead of in the connector body, as you see with dSub style connectors. The release tool would be inserted on the pin end to release the pin, instead of the wire end. Back before I learned to avoid molex's like the plague, I used to retract the barbs using a very small jeweler's screwdriver (too cheap to buy the proper tool).
If it's really like a molex, here's a search for pin removal technique:

Since yours is an AMP brand connector, it may be made completely differently from the molex products.
