I hope that I'll be able to get some quick help here. I'm trying to read error codes with a paperclip in my '98 Civic Ex. I was able to get a panel covering the ECU off. I think I figured out which plug I need, but it looks really hard to get to. There's a big ribbon or cable in the way, which isn't easily moveable because it's connected oddly enough to the ECU itself with a plastic band and some kind of screw it seems. And the plug itself, I don't know how to remove. It's absolutely tiny and I don't see an easy way to pull it out without tugging the wires. What do I do?

I believe it's the blue plug in a larger green plug near the top of the image. It has a brown and black wire.

 

unbolt the ECU. work smart it should only be a 10mm bolt and a 10mm nut IIRC
