Default re-pin ECU?

So im trying to re pin my ses light wire back into the ecu and ill get the ses light to come on for bulb check stays on then its like it vibrates loose and no light again. I am throwing a code for o2's so i know it should be on. I keep doing this and im sure the pin is pressed all the way in... maybe its loose and not grabbing or too tight and not sitting down on the connector? I dont know any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks in advance.

did you take the cover(colored plactic) off the front of the connector to push the pin in?

There is lots of sources for new pin, including the dealer, but if you don't have a good pair srimper for them, they're useless

PS You have an email
