how to remove the engine harness

hi,
i removed the unnesesary solenoids from my harness prior installing the pfc.
before i start to put all yhings back i think it is a good idea to remove the harness , check the connectors and remove all the unesesary wires.
can someone please help me to find how to remove the harness? the problem is that the ABS mechanism is in the way. i cannot even insert my hand in the tight place to pull the harness out.
do i need to unscrew the ABS completely?

thanks!!

no you dont have to take the ABS and i would just undo the harness from the ecu and pull it with the motor. get on the inside of the car and push out on the rubber grommet and with some work it will free from the firewall.

Unbolt the ABS pump, the lines are pliable and you can move it enough to uncomfortably get to the wiring to either remove or install the harness. If you're careful the bolts will stay in place and you can easily bolt it back down when you've finished w/ the harness work.
