How do you pull the pins out of a connector?

[goody90q45]

I cleaned up the MAF connector today and wanted to check for corrosion on the crimped wire connection on each pin but couldn't figure out how to remove the pins with wire attached from the plastic connector.

Are the pins a one-time use item that are not meant to be backed out once inserted into the plastic connector or am I just not pulling hard enough?

You got it... I doubt you have corrosion on the pin-to-wire connection.
