need help removing pins from connector

[Purch23]

This is the stator wire connector for a Coolster 125cc quad 3125B2. I'm having a problem removing the pins from the connector. Any advice?





Thank you in advance for any help.

I didn't watch the video but looked at the picture. You need to pop the yellow piece out with a tiny screwdriver. It is the "lock" that keep s the pins in. The pins are latched by plastic bits you have to pry away from the pin while pulling on the wire. There are purpose made little release tools but you can usually get them with a small sharp pick. The latches are right under where the yellow "legs" are at the pins. The yellow pieces lock the latches by keeping them up against the pins. Once you figure out how to get the first one loose you'll be golden.

That was it! Removed the yellow piece and pried the pins out. Thanks again!

+1 on Gypsy's advice.
If the connector pins are relatively short you might try a cell phone sim card tray tool to pop the pin retention tab out of the way after removing the yellow part.

A jeweler’s toolkit comes in handy, they’re on Amazon for for a very reasonable price. They sure have helped me on numerous occasions! My thoughts…
