\$\begingroup\$ Could you explain what you call "jumper" in the image? \$\endgroup\$ – Volker Siegel Apr 9 '14 at 2:28

You have to gently lift the black plastic flap away from the uninsulated terminal below while pushing the wire further in; this will allow you to slip the wire and terminal out from the header connector. I recommend using a hobby knife that you can slide under the flap.

\$\begingroup\$ I like to do this with a small (precision/jeweler's) slotted screwdriver. \$\endgroup\$ – kwc Apr 9 '14 at 7:51

\$\begingroup\$ you'll need to cut away the metal part of the connector anyway since it's crimped for sure. \$\endgroup\$ – Vladimir Cravero Apr 9 '14 at 8:52

\$\begingroup\$ Unless you're going to turn around and insert it into a larger header connector instead. \$\endgroup\$ – Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams Apr 9 '14 at 8:53
