How to remove the connections from the Renault and Dacia 1.5 DCI gearbox

Model: Renault Renault Various
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video we see how to remove the connection cables of the gear shift of various Renault and Dacia cars with the 1.5 DCi engine. They seem to be stuck in a position from which they cannot be removed, but in reality it is possible to move them from their housing with long-nosed pliers, carefully disconnecting the connector from the ball joint, which should simply pop off. When we then go to replace them, just push them back into position with the same system. However, the youtuber does not give us an indication of which cable is for reverse gear and which one is for forward gears.
