Wretched connectors

Freelander adventurer 56 Auto 21,000

Hello

I’ve been a silent member for a long time and always found my answer without having to bother anyone.

HOWEVER The clip that joins the gear selector to the car is beyond me. I’m working from the back and heading towards the radio area. Everything was fine, got past the chubby, got past the handbrake (sounds like a Lara Croft adventure. Undid the down hill decent clip but I have ground to a halt on the cable that connects the auto selector.

ive pushed and fiddled, I don’t want to force it. It has to be simple but I cannot budge it. please see photos of the swine

Slide the grey bit away from the wires, this is the lock to release the plug coupler.

Oh thank you! I will be at it in the morning, I sort of tried that but I guess a little persuasion from a little screwdriver might help

No need to use a screw driver all you need to do is press in the little tag before the edge of the clip, then it will slide down nicely photo below.
hold down the tag
1

slide down the arm until you hear a click.
2

Then lift out the connector.
3

same here for the white one push down the little tag first
4

Then slide the arm.

reverse is fitting place the connector in squarely and lift the arm.
