Rotaxers,



I am installing a Rotax Ring Mount on a 912 rotax engine.  I am at the point where I have to disconnect the electrical connectors to slip the ring mount on.  



My problem:  I have a two mag kill switch wires already installed in the connector.  These wires are preventing me from separating the two connectors.  Is there a tool or shortcut way to remove the wire from the connector?



I hope I'm making myself clear.



Thanks,



Tommy Walker in Alabama

Clear as my wife's chillie.

No not really!

I know what you mean the 2 reed wires that loop through the black heat shrink stuff?



Get a rivet and grind the shank down to make a small screw driver blade and use this inside the opened block connector to lift the little plastic lock and pull out the wire and metal connector. Don't pull too hard:Should come easy when you have the lock lifted. They just push in with a "click"

 Hope that all made sense.

Kev,

That did the trick!  Thanks a lot.  I owe you a cold one the next time you are in Alabama.

Glad that you managed to understand my waffle.

 BTW same goes for the rpm connector plug.
