Default Can't remove oil pressure sending unit

2000 Caravan.
Help! I am unable to remove my old oil pressure sending unit.
The "clip" is difficult to access and I can't figure out how to remove it. Has anybody had success?
Thanks.

First off you need to slide the red safety retainer out sideways from the connector. I use the flat side of a screwdriver to push on the forked side of the retainer to loosen it. Then you should be able to slide a straight pick or small slotted screwdriver down into the slot on the harness connector and pull up to release it.
