I forgot to say that after you disconnect the water lines, remove the

If you need to, slit the tube covering the faucet wires and remove
it.  It does little.

Tee-headed pins are nice to push on, but make a bigger hole in the
insulation than a needle.  And of course it pays to remember that if
you shove the pin in *exactly* where the wire is broken, it's going
to come out the other side and explore your finger.  Unlikely you can
prevent it but at least be prepared.
