Exclamation Stuck sensor

I'm working on tearing apart my plenum and one sensor or connection to the a/c is stuck( the one that goes into the wiring harness w/ the injectors). I don't know what I'm doing wrong, I took out the red peice thinking that was holding it back and that didnt work. Any help?

You have to look for a tab to either push or pull. The red thing just locks said tab.

K, I'm not finding much for a tab to pull or push. Not sure why the two halves won't pull apart. Lubricant wouldn't hurt them would it?

Not at this point, maybe the contacts are corroded together, and you just need to pull harder? The red thing is just a lock like I said. So look at the plug better before something bad happens.

Thanks zman, after a little persuasion the tab loosened up and the connection came apart. (points were a little corroded.) lol

Glad I could help. Problem solved, thread closed. Use die electric grease on all the plugs when you put her back together.
