Guys,
I have a CP that is all wired up with 9 pin .093 Molex connectors and I think I'm in a situation where I'll have to switch to 12 pin connectors. (I only have 3 buttons; whouda thunkit)?
Anyway, I can cut off every connector and repin every wire or I can use the molex pin removal tool (which I suck at) and extract every pin and transplant them into a 12 pin shell.
Will using a molex pin removal tool compromise these pins in any way over the long haul? As I said, I suck at it and can barely get the removal tool to work so I may be forced to cut them off anyway but I'd rather not re-pin 150 wires if I don't have to.
I will re-pin them if it'll compromise the long term reliability of the connectors/pins.
Thoughts?
