Right
Hopefully all sorted, found some spare time at work.
Popped out to the car and removed one power cable, found I could not get the paperclip to extract the pin. So plan B was implemented, and after 15 mins using a scalpel and cutters, I had the required pin intact in my hand.
Stripped a section of sleeving from the brown wire going to PIN 1 AMI on the new power loom, inserted the other PIN into 4 and soldered the two wires together. Applied some electrical tape and job done.
I've plugged it all back in, AMI and CD Changer are both working. Not yet scanned the car to see if the faults I had are cleared, I'll do that later.
Also need to deal with all that wiring, the fibre cables are so long its proving difficult to get everything back in without applying to much stress on the fibre. I do have a second fibre cable if one gets damaged though.
