88SA light switch socket 54930007

Post by DavidSage »

Hello,

Does anyone have a tool to remove the connections from the switch above. I guess there must be a tool to install these connectors as well.

If not I am going to have to buy a new one from Draganfly

Regards,

I was able to pull my ones out carefully with plyers.

I managed to make up a small insert tool which I managed to slip down on the de-soldered joint and with a little tapping with a small ball pein hammer managed with some wriggling to free the connector. The connector has a small tag on it which I then bent out and re- soldered and pushed back in place. I think it will be ok. I have kind of destroyed the tool I made. It was only of mild steel and I think I should have made it of silver steel.

Hi

The sockets each have a small tag, (arrowed), which retains them in the body of the switch back. All you need to do is push a thin piece of metal into the relevant socket hole and depress this tang - with the tang depressed the socket will withdraw from the rear of the switch back.

There is no insertion tool, the socket is just pushed into place using the attached wire and the tang clicks into place.
