assembly TPA as shown in Figure 10. Orient the removal tool so the notch in the tool is facing the

centerline of the TPA. Hook the removal tool firmly against the edge of the slot and pull on the TPA until it

is completely removed from the housing assembly. Retain the TPA for use with the connector assembly

after the contacts are replaced.

NOTE

An optional procedure to unlock the plug TPA is to place a coin edge under the edge of the TPA and pry it to an unlocked

position. To continue removing the TPA, twist the coin under the edge of the TPA. See Figure 10.
