Unplugging the Rad Fan

Featured Replies

This is going to make me sound like an absolute imbicile, but here goes... I'm replacing the rad in my '94 Loyale and I've disconnected the fan shround and the wires for the sensor. I'm trying to disconnect the lead from the fan where it connects to the wiring harness (white connectors that clip into each other) and I can't separate them. It looks to me like there are three "barbs" (I don't know the exact term) that hold the two connectors together. I dont want to crack the connector, nor am I interested in cutting the wires. Is there some special technique for getting them apart that you Subaru jedis can pass down to me?

 

Thanks,

BB

I remember learning how to unplug that connector...took a while, lol.

 

On the body side of the connector, is a small tab you need to pull outwards from the connector. Then, it should come apart.

 

Note that this is opposite of most connectors where you push into the connector to free it.
