Just found this pic I took when rewiring my truck earlier this year. It's what happens when you work too late! I remember thinking I was done for the night, then deciding to splice in this courtesy light holder. Didn't even notice the problem until the next day. :confused:

Similar to complimenting yourself on a perfect brake line flare, and then noticing the fitting sitting on the workbench.
Or bending the line before sliding on the tube nut.

You can probably get into the connector with a thin flat blade and pull the terminal out instead of cutting and re-crimping it.

WAIT, I'd kinda like more info ,but I'm scared to ask?

I've heard of it referred to as a "banana hammock" but I'll leave it up for interpretation. This thread has taken a wrong turn. Lol
