How to disconnect a Lucas Rists 1988 connector?

[brianmoooore]

You should be able to tease open the crimp onto the insulation with a small screwdriver, then cut the copper close to the crimp.
Lay the stripped end of the new wire on top of the crimped area and solder in place, then close the crimp onto the insulation with pliers when it's all cooled down.
Did three connectors like this yesterday.

It might be an idea to choose a more recent and readily available connector system, of which there are many. yes, it would mean changing plug and socket, but if you chose a suitable system, and also got the relevant crimping tool, it might be a longer term solution. Kits are readily available, and i seem to recall BigClive reviewing crimpers in one of his videos.
