Has anyone ever re-pinned their OBD2 connector before? I'm in the process of flashing Osiris onto my 03 Coupe's ECU and this one pin is NOT wanting to come out. I feel like I'm about to break the damn thing trying to remove it.

Are there any tricks to these? I know some OBD2s have the plastic retainers that keep the pins in place but I'm having trouble finding any on this white plastic connector.

 

I'm guessing you've seen this

"Use a pick or other pointed tool to bend back the retaining clip in the center of the connector so the pin can be slid out. "

plenty of times. i think the pin is just jammed in there.

 

You have to first release the clasps on the top and bottom of the plug, then use the pick to lift up on the plastic tab. They slide right out.

I have literally done this dozens of times.

 

Holy hell I finally got it. Thanks man.
