  • These wiring connectors are found everywhere on VW Group cars like VW, Audi, Skoda and SEAT. They are also found on many other cars and vans, often on wiper motors and EGR valves. Sometimes these VW Group connectors can be almost impossible to remove, even with the correct technique. Here are some ways of removing them, with and without tools. See my other video on how to remove them in situ; • How to undo VW wiring ...

    The connector latch on these are horrible. It's like they want the DIY guy to break every one of them. Thanks for the video.

      I’ve never understood why they made it so obtuse.

    Is the connector for the ignition coil the exact same one for the headlight assembly?
    Very easy to unhook on the bench very hard on the headlight assembly very tight dark spot!

    I broke the clip to the fuel pump. Due to the location I can't get under it with a pick. Cannot seem to get it undone :( any ideas?

    • @theweekthatis
      @theweekthatis  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Destroy it and fit a new connector maybe?

    Thank you for nuking a video for people like me who break the damn clip. Just so happens I have the same hook tool already.
