Rick,
If you're going to be working with Molex connectors every now and then -
I'd recommend that pick up some of the tools mouser carries....
You can get yourself at the very least, the small extraction tools.
They save a ton of time and are extremely easy to master.
Other things such as a good bench fluorescent magnifying lamp, a block of wood, a good
hand crimp and a good pair of wire strippers, sharp, pointed dike snips and at least two hardened-steel fabric pins
with the plastic ball on the end of them (with a slight 25 degree bend at the tip) - are essential to own as well.
They come handy in a pinch if you don't have the 011030043B and 011030044E pin extraction picks.
The different sized brass tubes, mini-screwdriver on the left are what I used to use.
They do not work nearly as good as the extraction tools on the right...
With these tools, you can fix, repair, make just about any harness on any slot machine!
