Working on a combination switch connector

I'm replacing some electrical components on my combination switch with some other good ones. The problem that I'm having is removing the wires from the connector. Anyone have an idea for the tool to help with this? Tony

Hairpins

One or two hairpins should do
ps thanks for that SST image, thought I was going to have to fabricate the other one shown below. Yours looks much simpler.

Ps

Once the SST is inserted, use a twisting motion instead of flexing to the side. It's less likely to deform the SST

If you do not want to fabricate, you can purchase. http://www.cycleterminal.com/crimp-t...ExtractionTool
The site also has some cutaway pictures on removing terminals and has the round pin extraction tools. http://www.cycleterminal.com/termina...procedure.html
I purchased replacement injector connectors, terminals, the crimper tool and other sensor connectors from this site
