Need Help:Stock Ignition Harness Stuck
 
Sorry for asking guys but how do you get this thing to unhooooook. I tried for a while and I dont want to break it. This is in regards to installing a turbo timer. Do you guys have an suggestions as to why the stock ignition harness won't budge at all? Any solutions or suggestions would help. Thanks =) Picture is included below

(I am pulling the right one off right? =( )

That looks like the right harness, I know it is a PITA.. you have to pull that red tab back and then just pull them apart. It is easier said than done, you just have to pry them apart though. You could try using a small flat blade screw driver if you are careful, those plastic harnesses are easy to break.

:doh: The harness is more durable than you think... carefully pull it apart as you depress the locking tab... it is in a tight spot and if you have to remove your drivers seat so you can lie on your back than do so. What type of turbo timer are you installing? You didn't say... I know my Blitz reqired that I bridge in it's harness/plug, which is that same style plug as the one you have pictured. good luck...:evilgrin:

ok cool i got it....it was just stuck. But now i have a new problem, i kinda broke a plastic thing near the metal ignition hole, and now the car beeps when i just open the door without the key in the ignition. Also, my aftermarket head unit trips out and turns on and off. I think there is a bad connection where I broke the plastic thing. Is it replaceable and how much? =(
