How do you unplug a wire harness on a truck?
There are 2 tabs that you squeeze together to unplug the harness. Then you drop the pan and find a socket the fits the plug that comes out of the tranny tightly (1 1/8″ I think it is) and slide the socket over the stub sticking out and it will squeeze in the retaing tabs so that you can pull the stub out from inside of the trans.
