unstabbing a electrical plug
No secret, if it doesn't release, just cut the wire and re strip it
"Evon Barvinchack" wrote in message nk.net... I am replacing some switches that the wires were trimmed and pushed into the switch instead of bending the wire around the screw. My problem is pushing a small screw driver into the release hole does not release the wire. Is this a common problem or am I just not doing something correctly? What's the secrete? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- |

You don't want to shorten wires if there is a work around. "Evon Barvinchack" wrote in message nk.net...

Yeah, that's generally my technique. I can never get the wires to release. You don't want to shorten wires if there is a work around. "Evon Barvinchack" wrote in message nk.net...
