9. Use J-38125-12A to gently lift the terminal retaining tab while gently pulling the wire out of the back of the connector. Always remember never
use force when pulling a terminal out of a connector.
10. If the terminal is severely bent or damaged, it may be possible on some connectors to push the wire out of the front of the connector instead of
pulling it through. This will prevent damage to the internal seals of the connector. Once the terminal is pushed out of the connector, cut the wire as
close to the terminal as possible and pull the wire through the connector.
11. Repair the terminal by following the Repairing Connector Terminals (Terminated Lead Repair) (See: Testing and Inspection/Component Tests
and General Diagnostics/General Electrical Diagnostic Procedures/Connector Repairs/Repairing Connector Terminals (Terminated Lead Repair))
Repairing Connector Terminals (Terminal Repair) (See: Testing and Inspection/Component Tests and General Diagnostics/General Electrical
Diagnostic Procedures/Connector Repairs/Repairing Connector Terminals (Terminal Repair)) procedure.
12. Insert the repaired terminal back into the cavity. Repeat the diagnostic procedure to verify the repair and reconnect the connector bodies.

1. Slide the new terminal into the correct cavity at the back of the connector.
2. Push the terminal into the connector until it locks into place. The new terminal should be even with the other terminals. Ensure that the terminal is
locked in place by gently pulling on the wire.
3. To assemble the connector, reverse the Terminal Removal Procedure.
