The correct tool is make your own I most often file a small flat screw driver to fit.

Since there are different sizes I have a few .

Then you take apart the connector in the usual manor.

It is in the Toyota Electrical Wiring Diagrams which you should have.

Thanks for the reply. But could you explan what you mean by, "Then you take apart the connector in the usual manor" ? Does the connector come apart and then the wires pull out, or the the wires just get pushed out?

Thanks,
Again

Thanks guys, the info gets me closer to where I need to be.

I picked the connectors today and it appears the white part of the connector in the second photo is a lock.

I'll post some additional photos of the new "unlocked" later.

Thanks again

The part number for the connector I needed is: 90980-11246 The connectors were about $3.00 each

The second photo shows the white part of the connector in the “unlocked” position. I have heard this part of the connector described as the secondary boundary. I used a small pick with a 90 deg. bend to pull the white piece out halfway and then used a small flat jewlers screwdriver to unlock the wire and pull it out the backside of the connector. Installing the wires into the new connector was easy enough as they snapped into place, and then pushing the white plastic part back flush finished the installation.

The locking device part of the connector that keeps it locked onto the coil pack broke.
