Terminal Removal Procedure
- Locate the connector position assurance (CPA) on the connector body and pull the CPA out. The CPA is on the wire harness side of connector.

- Use a small flat-bladed tool to gently prise off the dress cover by inserting the tool under the cover opposite the harness side and levering up.
- Remove the cover.
- Using a small flat-bladed tool, push on the side of the nose piece retainer while pushing the nose piece forward with your thumb. This will release the terminal position assurance (TPA).

- Pressing the J-38125-12A tool into the release cavity of the terminal you are removing, gently pull the wire out of the back of the connector. Always remember never use force when pulling a terminal out of a connector.
