Thread: How hard to unplug a cable?

OK, I love my disco, but at the moment I’m having issues with my feelings for Land Rover.

I’m trying to remove the window ECU.

I’ve skimmed my knuckles getting the impossibly small nuts off the unit, and I’ve removed the face plate so the printed circuit board can be removed, I’ve even removed the larger of the two wiring plugs.

So here is the problem, the smaller of the wiring plugs had a clasp or clip, as part of the plug, that attaches to the socket.
Only I do not know how it attaches, do I squeeze it into the plug?
Do I try to prise it away from the plug?
Do I just try to cut the clasp off (not ideal as it keeps the plug in)?

Typically for Land Rover the circuit board will come out 2/3 of the way with the wires attached but not far enough to get it out and see what is going on.

Help.

I asked the question myself. I don't really remember but the answer was to just pull hard. No clips.
