Sorry. I "lied". Managed to get the wire out but finding a replacement may be tricky or at least time consuming. FWIW, image showing tools and more of wire corrosion. (Yes. I'm sure you're all just dying to see THAT. LOL). As I was doing with the larger connector pins, I used bailing wire but obviously a smaller gauge for this: Image link: https://photos.app.goo.gl/AA97WnbILneiSfAs1 I'd hoped I could harvest yet some more parts of the 1.8 Digifant harness but the ECU pins are larger, I think. This is a hard lesson, hopefully learned. I'd assumed that since the other wires near ECU connector were shiny clean, all would be un-corroded. NOT true. Neil.
