## Questions & Answers

**Q: how do you use this tool?**
A: These tools are for unlocking electrical connectors, They slide into the tab cover on the side of the connector, holding the locking tab into the open position while you pull them apart.  It saves fingers and thumbs. easier to use than a small screwdriver that you cannot get in right making it difficult to separate the two halves.  Look closely to make  sure there isn't an external locking pin preventing you to use the tool until it is pulled.

**Q: Does it work for electrical connections on japanese models (mazda honda toyota) ?**
A: This double prong style will not work on any any but 1 or 2 of the largest of my toyota camry connectors. I have 3 toyotas. The manufacturer's answer is only partly true and a bit misleading. It works on a "style of connector" but the toyotas do not use that style. Most of the tabs that have to be lifted by the tool are only about the size of the space between the prongs so they miss it.

**Q: How do these work on Japanese automotive connectors where you have to press on a release then pull the connector?**
A: Sorry, no Japanese vehicles here.  They work great on the Ford connectors.

**Q: Can this be used to release connector tabs locking connectors to mounting brackets?**
A: It's a hit or miss, some it worked on others you can't get the tool in...great tool, saves on connectors.

*by R***  on Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2024*

Haven’t had the need to use them yet, but the fact that they’re two pieces and may need to use both of them at once and looks like they will fit a lot of different electrical connections and hopefully work without breaking anything
