ll77 Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 sorry guys, i know this is a really nooby question but here goes.. I'm trying to take off the 35 pin connector on the ecu to do some circuit testing, and I see that the top comes off after undoing a retaining clip, but the bottom will not cooperate. There is a very difficult screw at the bottom, but I'm not sure whether or not to take it off (not that I currently can anyways). Do I have to take this screw off? or is there some other kind of release mechanism that will free the connector? bottom view I tried searching, but I couldnt find anything. I guess this is common knowledge to you guys. Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 I think the bottom part (the rusty thing under the circled screw) is a hinge point and the top is just a clip. Once un-clipped at the top it pulls away and then un-clips from the hinge. It won't be on there loose, it's a firm snug connector. Try rocking side to side while pulling out at the top. Here's a better pic. There is what looks like a roll pin that the harness connector clips under, the connection is made and there is a locking tab at the top to hold it. Quote Link to comment
Skib Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 should just come off, the top side clips in and the bottom kinda fits in a nook there. Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 Wat? I just happen to have a 200sx (S110) ECU above my computer and it looks the same.... so I shot it. I also have a KA and a Z18ET ecu. Quote Link to comment
Wide14u Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 mike i chase you around in here reading all you post like its nothing it comes out of your head faster then i can talk :D Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted December 30, 2010 Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 Well my head (wetwear) has reached maximum density so for Christmas I bought myself a 1 TB external hard drive. 1Terra Byte is one trillion or one thousand billion bytes of storage. If you stacked 1 trillion postage stamps on top of each other they would circle the earth at the equator with over 7,000 miles left over. The plug? Why, it fits my skull implant.

ll77 Posted December 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2010 ok thanks for the help guys. It is very snug, so much so that I thought I might break something by just forcing it out. My intuition told me if there was a tab up top, there must be one on the bottom. Ok, so there is only one retaining mechanism that I have to undo. Thanks so much! Ratsun is so cool. :D Quote Link to comment
