Re: How to take apart anderson connectors

You get two people and a small screwdriver. One person goes to the front end and pushes the pin up off where it is, the other pulls out on the wire. It should pop out pretty easily. Then what we did was cut the wire as close as we could and drilled out the copper wire that was left within the clip (we use a small bit and afterwards the rest just fell out). We then drove a small flat head screw driver between the (now empty) clip to widen it a little bit. We then stripped a 6 gauge wire pushed it into the empty, widened clip (not quite as easy as it sounds). Then we crimped the clip (more of squeezed it with a pair of pliers) and soldered the wire to the connector. Then just push the connector back in and you'll feel it pop in. Now just do the same thing with the other side and you're done.

If you have any questions or I didn't explain myself, feel free to ask.
