       | Terminal Removal Procedure | 
     
    
   
   
    
   
   
    If the terminal is visibly damaged or is suspected of having a faulty connection, the terminal should be replaced.
    
    
    
      
    
    
   
   
  
   Follow the steps below in order to repair pull-to-seat connectors:
   
   
  
  
  
   
    
     
      | 1. | Remove the connector position assurance (CPA) device and/or the secondary lock. 
 
 | 
    
   
  
  
   
    
     
      | 2. | Disconnect the connector from the component or separate the connectors for in-line connectors. 
 
 | 
    
   
  
  
   
    
     
      | 3. | Remove the terminal position assurance (TPA) device. 
 
 | 
    
   
  
  
   
    
     
      | 4. | Review the connector end view to determine the proper test probe and release tool. 
 
 | 
    
   
  
  
   
    
     
      | 5. | Insert the release tool into the front of the connector body. 
 
 | 
    
   
  
  
   
    
     
      | 6. | Grasp the wire at the back of the connector body and gently push the terminal out the front of the connector body. 
 
 | 
    
   
  
  
   
  
  
   
    
     
      | 8. | Insert the repaired terminal back into the cavity. Repeat the diagnostic procedure to verify the repair and reconnect the connector bodies. 
 
 | 
    
   
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
   
    
     | Terminal Insertion Procedure | 
   
  
  
   
  
  
  
   
    
     
      | 1. | Align the terminal and pull the wire from the back of the connector in order to seat the terminal. 
 
 | 
    
   
  
  
   
    
     
      | 2. | If the connector is outside of the passenger compartment, apply dielectric grease to the connector. 
 
 | 
    
   
  
  
   
    
     
      | 3. | Install the TPA, CPA, and/or the secondary locks.
