    I have a 2008 prius and I am trying to switch out the engine wiring harness, but I cannot seem to get it out. Most of the plugs are unplugged, however, I cannot seem to detach the harness from the firewall behind the engine. Does anyone have a tutorial/any ideas on how to do it? Any help is much appreciated.

    ... or at some rather similar URL like this one: techinfo.toyota.com

    I wonder if bisco has registered "toyota tech info.com" and put up a lookalike site there to steal everybody's identities.... :)

    Are you trying to remove the entire harness from the hood?
    You got to detached all the wire connectors from the sensors, etc, and try removing the manifold that gets on its way.
    Don't you have a manual?
