Today I had to replace the J244 connector. This was due to repeated install and removal cycles of a couple to the sockets. The internal retainer in the connector failed and would not retain the sockets.
Remove J244 connector and wiring.
Disassemble the connector.
Remove each pin, on at a time, and install it in the new connector. Verify pin with GEA 24 pinout diagram.
Once all the pins were placed in the new connector, it was reassembled, wrapped, and secured. The shields were then connected to the backshell grounds.
