Default How do i disconnect this connector

It goes along the top of the tranny. I have tried and tried, i don't know how to get this off. The plastic has hardened over the years and it won't budge.

That looks like the same connector on the... black box w/ the fuses in the engine compartment. mine is an o1, and it has that connector running down the positive battery cable lead. When I was messing with my starter, i undid that plug (my gray one, not the tranny). I had to push down on the tab, and push teh entire connector together hard, then kinda pull apart while still pressing down. Was a PITA, but im sure you'll get it eventually. No tips on getting it off, but dont break it . I busted the connector that goes to my starter (its different than yours). Mine is held on by silicone and zipties because the attaching clip broke off. Oh well, dodge wants 80 for a new battery cable and can't guarentee that wire + connector comes with it.

Ah, I started to post before you got the second pic up. Um... Yea that is a different connector. Sorry man scratch what I said before.

I can't see the image, something wrong with the way it's being served and I'm not really inclined to fool around with it... so what's it leading to?

Until the answer comes along: Frequently, old plastics tend to end up fused together with whatever gunk was carried into them along with splashed water, atmospheric moisture, and dead faeries. Most often, a good spritz of sensor safe cleaner will flush a lot of that gunk out, and following it with a silicone lubricant of some sort will make it possible to finesse the pieces apart without breaking things. Patience is required, but in most cases it's doable.

And if it ain't, then as VeeDub would say, hit it with an ax.
