    My hall-sender wiring is failing at the plug. Its cracking something terrible and I think it wont be long before one of the three (possibly more) wires breaks.

    So how do I get the pins out so I can solder new wire directly to the pin(s)

    Thank you

    Stick up a pic. of yours (presumably still in situ)... can show you some images of a Hall sensor from an 8v dizzie taken apart, but if it's nothing like the 16v set up you have will save me the effort.

    You can get the pins out with tools you can order from Ali ;)
    A new plug is also available. It's called "Bosch junior timer" (at least here in NL). Order a set which includes the new pins too, sometimes they come seperately (depending on wire thickness).

    A new plug also comes with the rubber fittings to reduce moist in the plug. You'll need a (very) decent crimping pliers too, maybe you can lend one somewhere. That's what I did when I made the engine wire harness.

    plug isnt a junior timer, its specific type for the dizzy. but the pins are the same as used in junior/power timer plugs though and are widely available
