Hello all!!

Recently, I have been experiencing issues with noise and jumping volume levels on my MKII which I have manged to track down to wiring issues to the connector on the car sled. Many cables look loose & low connectivity and one has pulled free entirely.

Unfortunately, I can't seem to remove the pins to crimp\solder the cables back on firmly. They are rather thin and are prone to bending so I don't want to brute-force them out in case I break them.

Could anyone tell me what I need to be doing to remove the pins properly?? Or do I need a new connector from DigiKey??

Thanks,

GT
