Fixing short in TPS wiring harness November 02, 2009, 06:22:44 PM I traced my random idle and drivability to a wire in between my 10 pin connector and TPS plug. The problem is in the black wire. Is there anyway to take these connectors apart, replace the wire, and put them back together or should I just cut as much of the wire off as I can and put a new wire in its place. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks! EdHere is a pic of the harness I am talking about. Quote Selected
Fixing short in TPS wiring harness Reply #1 – November 02, 2009, 09:35:03 PM If you look into the connector, you should see a little tang coming off the metal pr0ng that the wire is attached to, you need to release the tang from the plastic connector and it should pull out easily. You'll need new metal pins to put on the new wire, I'm sure Napa carries them. try using a small pick, or a very long needle to release it. Quote Selected
