Abstract: A pin straightening tool for aligning a pin in a multi-pin connector. The pin straightening tool includes an electrically conductive handle having a beveled end and a hollow recess extending longitudinally into the beveled end. An alignment tip is connected to the end of the handle and used to align the pin. The alignment tip includes a shaft which is inserted into the recess of the beveled end of the handle and a tube which extends longitudinally from the shaft and away from the handle. The tube has a hollow recess having an inner diameter sized for receipt of the pin and the outer diameter of the tube is sized for placement of the tube between adjacent pins in the multi-pin connector. Engagement means is provided between the alignment tip and the handle so that the alignment tip can be engaged and subsequently removed from the handle. A pocket clip is attached to the handle for clipping the pin straightening tool when the pin straightening tool is not in use.
