Uncrimping a crimped connector

[Franklin]

I'm working on a project (a RC Car), where some of the components are crimped together. Is there anyway I can uncrimp them, or do I need to just cut the wire (and then solder)?

Thanks

It is usually possible, with a small screwdriver, to pry the crimp open, but much easier to cut the wire. If you will have enough wire after cutting, I say cut it.

to be honest, u have very little chance u also need proper tools to recrimp them

The trick is to solder them after levering them open, rather than trying to crimp them again. However, having used small screwdrivers on them over the years - I've got lots of little holes and tears in my hands 8)
