and this is where things went south

the unloomed wiring harness worked

the purdy loomed harness not so much, well it worked except for one thing, it wouldn't show me which gear I selected manually with the Lokar shifter like it useta could

so I quickly determined it must be the gooey neutral safety switch, cause the earlier two plug ones had the plugs silliconed or glued in and usually they would break if you tried to divorce them

here I was trying to take the plug off of one of the wire connectors in order to clean it, but not even with my specialized tool could I remove the pins, no way no how
