    Had a squirrel set up housekeeping in my engine bay few weeks ago. Besides eating most of the wiring to my ARB compressor she got a hold of some others, jacking up my traction control, not sure what else. Wondering if anyone knows how to remove this plug? It is located right near the Brake fluid reservoir. I've got to take it out to solder the wire back into it.

    OR........Does anyone know what the brown or beige wire goes to in the top connector? I got everything else reconnected and all seems to be well but I still have the (!) light illuminated on the dash. Damn squirrel chewed it so close to the connector I cant get my hands in there to put a connector on there. PS The baby squirrels were really cute and were picked up by an animal rescue this morning.

    Goddammit I hate squirrels, and every other rodent.

    I'm not sure about this plug, I haven't found one in 1st gens like this. But it looks like maybe the two ears on either side, maybe you either pull up on both to unlock, then pull, or maybe push them outward and pull up?

    Do y'all 2nd gen folks have access to EWD (elec wiring diagrams) like us 1st gen'ers do?

    Looks like there is a squeeze from both sides thing going on but that doesnt seem to release the plug. I've been looking for wiring diagrams online but im not finding what that Brown wire is for. Still have to do some more searching when I get home.
