Trouble removing door wire harness
 
Need some help!


I wanted to take the doors off of my 2012 Jk, but I cannot get the damn wiring harness unhooked on either door.

Has anyone else had this issue? I feel like Im going to break it because I'm pulling so hard, even after I flip the little switch on the harness.

First time is a bitch. Give it a yank.

Make sure the little red slide thingy is disengaged. Once this is done you should be able to press the button on the bottom and slide it off, if the red thing is in the wrong position you won't be able to press the black button on bottom.

My hands are usually bleeding after I unhook all 4 doors on my jeep.

It usually helps if you push the connector together as you push the tab down...then pull apart

Stupid red clips got me the first time.

Only also help if you push the connector together then push down the tab to relieve tension off of the tabs

I had to watch a YouTube video and get a flash light to finally get mine apart. Just keep trying and you'll get it.

What he said was really right. You must follow this instruction to unhook the door of your Jeep.

I think the first time you realize you realize you have to pull a lot harder than you would think as well :beer:
