Need Acura Tech help and others also, Door lock actuator connector!
Hey guys, I am really stuck with a crazy problem. I had some paint and body work done and the paint guy had to take off rear view mirrors to paint, so while he was inside the door I asked if he could put the lock actuator in for me. The pass. door lock did not work, so he installed it and it still did not work and he said it looked like the bottom connector was messed up(the one with two wires but looks like a 3 wire connector), I can not find anyone with a connector(salvage, store etc...) He said he can not get the wire out( pin type I expect). I have not seen it so I canot describe what the problem could be with the connector. The previous owner had the windows tinted before i bought and did not know the lock did not work(so he says). Can anyone find the part or tell me how to get the pins out. Your help is much appreciated. I am going now to look at the connector and see if it will come out. I can buy a whole door harness for about 60.00 but do not want to if possible. I am in a rush right now so sorry for a kinda mixed up post. THANKS!!!

I fixed it. There is a white cap you have to pull out in the center of connector housing. With the lock/latch of the connector in the up position, stick a small glasses screw driver under the bottom of the pin and push up and back, you may need two screwdrivers, one to push up and one to push the pin back. Repair pin/wire connection and reassemble. My wire came out of the pin connector.

Remove white cap with needle nose pliers.
Insert small "glassess" flat head screwdriver under the pin and push back until it stops, then pry up and use another screwdriver to push out the back. Note the position of the connector, that is how you need to work on it(latch side up. This should work on most connectors to a degree.
Mods can you add "PICS" to original title?! Please.
