Abstract
A resetting tool comprising an elongate housing having first and second ends, and defining a longitudinal channel. The first end can comprise first opposing flex members that are compliant, and the longitudinal channel can comprise a tapered portion about the second end. A movable rod is slidable bi-directionally within the longitudinal channel, and has a first end portion operable to cause the first opposing flex members to transition from a retracted position to an extended position to reset a female electrical contact. The movable rod has a second end portion comprising second opposing flex members operable to slide through the tapered portion to cause the second opposing flex members to transition from an extended position to a retracted position to reset a male electrical contact. The resetting tool operates from a mating side of the respective connectors in support of the male and female electrical contacts.
