Help me if you can....as The Beatles once sung.

Just trying some simple electrics job of fitting a PC to my bike, this isn’t difficult is it? For me, yes its it! Is there a knack or something to removing the electric connectors? Squeeze this way or pull that way?!!

You've got to remove the " square C-shaped" wire clip on the connector, or at least open it up enough to get the connector off the injector.

A lot easier to say than do though and make sure that when it pings off via your eyeball it doesnt then get lost!

A small flat screwdriver or needle-nosed pliers work for me, but I've had a lot of practice over the years....

Good luck

careful you don't break the plastic part of the injector they are not very strong.

A good wiggle dose it for me

You only need to push the wire part IN to the plastic body then pull the plug free - no removal needed.

Surely that's for removing the PC connector, not the OE one?

Mind you I am running standard 620 injectors............
