Replacing the trim sensor. I have a selection of 82 pin removal tools, but none of them seem to be able to disassemble the connector. Has anybody had experience with this. Maybe a picture of which tool, or explanation of how you disassembled the old connector ? I guess I better explain more for future search engine results. This is the trim sensor wiring connection that is inside the transom. The replacement sensor is sent without a connector so they individual wires can be passed through the hole in the transom. They come pre-crimped with the connectors that fit the connection housing in the pictures included.

Volvo or Mercury trim sensor? You're also covering the numbers on the connector, and identifying the connector maker and model/type is how I would go about trying to figure out how to disassemble it.

Thanks for the reply,,,, I was able to get it,,, It was a basic misunderstanding that the pin release was actuated from the other side of the connector. when presented with all the pin release tools it appeared that there must be a complicated release method of sliding one of the tools along side the wire side. I found i could have completed the process in moments with simple tools. Embarrassed. If I was not so behind on the work I would have taken the time to post a video of the task to save someone the same embarrassment.

Thanks for sharing the result - hope it helps the next person with a similar problem!
