AMP MULTILOCK ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS
REMOVING SOCKET/PIN
TERMINALS
1. If necessary, cut any surrounding cable straps to gain
access to the connector.
2. See Figure 7-50. Depress the button on the socket termi-
nal side of the connector (plug) and pull apart the pin and
socket halves.
3. Bend back the latch slightly and free one side of second-
ary lock, then repeat the step to release the other side.
Rotate the secondary lock outward on hinge to access
terminals in chambers of connector housing.
4. Looking in the terminal side of the connector (opposite
the secondary lock), take note of the cavity next to each
terminal.
5. See Figure 7-51. With the flat edge against the terminal,
insert the pick (Snap-On TT600-3) into the cavity until it
stops. Pivot the end of the pick away from the terminal
and gently tug on wire to pull terminal from chamber. Do
not tug on the wire until the tang is released or the termi-
nal will be difficult to remove. A “click” is heard if the tang
is engaged but then inadvertently released. Repeat the
step without releasing the tang.
NOTE
An AMP TERMINAL CRIMP TOOL (Part No. HD-41609) is
used to install Amp Multilock pin and socket terminals on
wires. If new terminals must be installed, see CRIMPING
INSTRUCTIONS on page 7-50.
