Removing wires from 46 Ford headlight switch
 

Trying to remove wires from my 46 Ford headlight switch and having a problem. They are not screwed on but appear to be push on type and unable to remove. Are they soldered ? Any help would be appreciated.

Yes these are soldered so you will need to heat them with a suitable soldering iron to provide enough heat to melt the solder.

Thanks meric42, I cut the rubber seals off and could see the solder. My iron would not work so I used a very low flame on a propane torch. They are off and will change to screw on terminals. Should have cut off the terminals off in the first place.
Seems like it was over kill by Henry.
