I'm running a suitcase MIG off of a Miller Trailblazer Pro 350D, and recently have had problems with the connector on the control cable. Basically it will lose connectivity but if I wiggle the wire going into the connector it's restored.Presumably I need to take it apart and recrimp one of the pins, but I'm having a hard time determining what the correct tool is to use to remove the pins. I have a set of the automotive style tools for dismantling pin type connectors (and bought a tool for mil-spec connectors to try), but a simple tubular type removal tool does not disengage the locks on the pins of the miller connector.Can anybody advise me which tool I need to buy in order to remove the pins? Here is a pic of the inside of the connector:

Reply:Most that has barb to hold in place. I removed in pass using shim stock on side.On some just used a thin screwdriver 🪛. I have not seen any tool but probably one is made. Dave
