Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi, taking out this part, I don't know how to take out those plugs. I figured out how to take the lighter one, but I don't want to just pull and broke. Please be precise... Thank you http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=10&u=12506281

POST 2Original post

The plastic connector plugs slide on to the electrical spades...you need to pull the plug off. If it is stubborn, (with battery disconnected) you can lightly pry the plug off with a small screwdriver or such; just be gentle. Pry only enough to loosen the plug.

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thank you Jmata for your fast answer, but as I mentionned , I am pretty slow on those things. I upload an othe rimage with an arrow. Is this where I have to place the screw driver and pry it. The total yellow or other, will take out or do I have to unclip the part 2and 3 before. http://www.servimg.com/image_preview.php?i=12&u=12506281

POST 4Original post

Yes, gently pry where the plug meets the switch; it will come apart. Been out of town, hence the delayed reply.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
