Citroen C3 - Removing electrical connector pin from the display

Unread post by haroon88 »

Dear fellow members,

How do one can remove the electrical connector pin from the main dashboard display (965656777 0R00) of Citroen C3?

Thanking you in anticipation.

That part number is not returning anything. If you are talking about a processor chip, that's a desoldering job and perhaps you would be better going to an auto electrician. Most modules are replaced now and not repaired - what is the problem?

Maybe he is just having trouble unplugging the wiring harness from the module? (lost in translation)

Quite possibly Mike

@ haroon88: Can you provide any pictures of the part in question?

Thank you for all your replies. Sorry if not understanding the device which I was referring. Here are the photos. It seems quite difficult for me and I feel ashamed as it might be simple to remove but I am not understanding how to unplug it :oops: .

The lever needs to be pushed down 90degrees (towards your arrow, right) so it's flat. There is stubborn resistance to this initially as it's clicked to lock, but once moving the lever action will also make the connector rise and disgengage from the socket pins.
