This afternoon I was about to plug my PC Pro back into the ECU and I noticed that there is a wire broken on the ECU side of the harness. It's broken right at the pin, Anyone know how to remove the pin so I can resolder it?

I don't. Sorry. One of the white harness wires?

Yes. From looking at a pin out diagram it's a power ground wire.

All I can say is send it to me and I'll replace the harness.

Thanks for the offer Tom. I managed to find a flap that opens along the back of the connector, This revealed enough of the pin that I was able to solder another piece of wire to that and then connected that to the broken wire. I'm hoping that will keep any tension of the solder joint. I have it back in the car and a quick spin around the block didn't reveal any problems.

Glad it worked out for you. Any idea how it broke? Shouldn't be any tension on it.

It was broke right at the pin, all I can think is it was crimped a little too aggressively and the wire finally broke.
