RE: {Chrysler 300} ‘63 Chrysler 300 headlight switch connector swap

Mark -

If you look at the attached photo, this is what you are dealing with. That tiny tab retains the brass connector in the plastic surround piece. So your mission is to go to Harbor Freight or local hardware store and buy a set of super tiny screwdrivers. The ones I have here from HF have the Pittsburgh brand on them. Then use the screwdriver with the smallest point and press the tab in until the brass connector releases. Hint: I wear a bright camper's headlight while doing this work, so I can see inside.

Hello All,

Is there a semi easy way to remove the wires from this connector and swap out a bad one on the car?  Any help is appreciated. Thank you. 

300ly,

Mark Lindahl

PS-I am suddenly not getting 12v to the gas gauge/Temp gauge and I fear that a bad connection at the headlight connector may be the problem, but I can’t be sure.
