    Subject: Pin extract problem
    I managed to have a wire pull out of its crimped female pin which is still in the #14 slot in a 25 pin D-sub. Have had no luck with Radio Shack extracting tool. If I cant Extract it, is there a way to solder the wire back into the crimped female pin? Thanks for any ideas Ron Burnett RV-6A May you have the Lord's blessings today! Sent from my iPad

    Alex, I thought about that but then I would have to extract all the pins. Dont seem to have much luck with Radio Shack extractors. Maybe only solution.

    I imagine that your problem is that you now cannot grip the female pin from the rear. Insert the extraction tool and push with a male pin into the female pin and that should push the female pin out with the tool Hope this helps -----Original Message----- From: owner-aeroelectric-list-server@matronics.com <owner-aeroelectric-list-server@matronics.com> On Behalf Of Ron Burnett Sent: July 2, 2019 5:23 PM Subject: AeroElectric-List: Pin extract problem --> <ronburnett@charter.net> I managed to have a wire pull out of its crimped female pin which is still in the #14 slot in a 25 pin D-sub.

    Subject: Re: Pin extract problem
    Ron, I'm done mowing the lawn now so I'm allowed to sit down at my laptop and type a real reply to you. :-) First, use one of the extraction tools made out of metal. If your Radio Shack tool is all plastic, it is much harder to get the job done and it might not work at all. Slide the extraction end of the tool around the pin. That is the more round end. The insertion end is more open, more like a spoon. See http://www.steinair.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/SAT-023-CONTACT-INSERTION-REMOVAL-TOOL.pdf After the tool clicks home, grab the pin itself with tweezers or small needle nose pliers and push the pin out. If the tool is in place and has compressed the barbs, the pin will slide out with minimal force. If the pin doesn't slide out, remove the tool, rotate it 90 degrees or so, and try again. Or give me a holler and I'll drive over and do it for you. Cheers, -- Art Z.

Also, consider acquiring one of these tools: Specs at: https://tinyurl.com/y272xsku You can buy replacement tips from Digikey too Emacs! from Digikey at: https://tinyurl.com/y6f6p9uu This is the one I carried at Beech for years; works with a broad range of connectors . . . including D-sub 20 and 22s Bob . . .
