Is there an easy way or a special tool like they have molex
Pins to remove the wires from the AMP power connector on an Apple II supply? I have to transplant the connector from one supply to another and don’t want to break anything.
Thanks,
Corey
Hi Corey,
I've tried to remove the AMP connector after the dog chewed it. I suspect that there is a clip on each metal end that holds the ends in the connector. I had no luck in removing the plug.
If it is any help, the actual plug is:
Digi-Key part no. A14113-ND. See here :

Hope that Helps,

Corey, search eBay for "Amp Extraction Tool".
You will see all types and sizes. It's a simple plunger-like tool but at the moment I can't tell you the pin size.
Somewhere between $15 to $30 pending what you get.
Good luck in your search.
Thanks. I took a pot shot and ordered one.
I bought this recently for a Willegal Apple II build. The contacts are not included which are these:

Of course, since I bought both the socket and the connector I don't know if they match the original 100%, but they seem to work for my build.
(If you want to extract the original contacts the barbs are shown in the picture.)
