FICM install
I just received my FICM from Ed and need to put it back on the truck. The problem is I brook one of the clips on the plug closest to the fire wall when I removed it. I think remember reading awhile back where someone had the same problem and came up with fix that looked good (there were pictures). I have done several searches but I can not find it. Does anyone know what I am talking about and can you direct me to it? Help would be greatly appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!

Bud thanks so much for the quick response. I was able to find that one and I am sure that is the best way to fix the problem but I don't have the parts and I am trying to avoid removing the harness. The fix that I am thinking of is where he used cable ties to hold the plugs in place and it looked good to me at the time. I think it was more involved than just cable ties but I can't remember exactly how it was done.
If that jogs anyone's memory and you know what I'm talking about and can help me find it that would be great!!!!!!!!

I remember removing them. They were a nightmare. Since there are three, I would ziptie one cable to the broken cable at such an angle where it tries to pull the not-broken one out, and since it's clipped it will push the broken one in. That should prevent it from coming out.
