probably a little late in the game for pin removal tool idea, but I tried a jewelers common screw driver and it worked! The paper clip idea doesn’t work very well, bends to easy, but that jewelers screw driver has some rigidity to it and can pry open the lock that holds the pins in the AMP connector. Just a thought for you

It's near impossible to remove the pins once locked into the housing without destroying them. Unfortunately the pin removal tool is rather expensive.
Oh yes, the gauge is 20-24, I'll fix the typo in my other post.
