Step 1: Release the Tabs
As with any electrical work, make sure the lamp cord isn’t plugged in while doing this.
Start by unscrewing the plastic ring from the socket.
Use a a tiny flat head screwdriver to lift and release the plastic tabs so you can pull the socket away.
Step 2: Release the Wires
Insert a mini screwdriver into the opening (as show in the picture) and push down. While holding the screwdriver pressed down, pull out the black wire from the socket. Repeat for the white wire.
