Thanks
Just wanted to say thanks for posting this diagram. I took my pins out but forgot to pay attention to the way they go back in. Your diagram cleared it up.

I will say again, many say "just cut and splice the wire(s)"
May be fine, but I feel the more splices, the more potential for failure!

Yes, That is a good one too, Had stumbled across that video the other night. I also found the attached GIF.
As far as forgetting to pay attention what way the pins go back in, I just "told myself" to remember the flat end of the terminal goes DOWN toward the hinge portion of the connector, and the locking tang is up top.
If it's upside down, it won't lock in. There is a notch on the terminal that locks into the tang, (as shown in the photo and GIF, and I can of course see it on mine)
It's more of a feel thing, than trying to see it. (I did not find it necessary to mark the depth of my pick tool, as shown in the video, (may have been a different video)
(Wow! That 1st connector he shows in the video looks easier yet to release)
