I'm trying to fit a new radiator, so I'm removing the front fairing, but I can't get the indicator connector pin out! I've tried using pliers to grip t and yank it out but no luck. It's something so easy, but it's just not happening for me! Sad

If the really are stuck cut them and crimp in new plugs.

Managed to avoid it by following the wire back to where it connects to the mains, and removed it that way.

I'd expect the wiring to be soldered on at the indicator end and would have unplugged at the loom in the first instance. Are you sure yours actually unplug at the indicators?

I assumed that was what you thought was stuck I have never seen and indicator disconnect at the indicator end.
