Default Lambarda Connection

Hi, I'm about to change my Oxy senser but looking at the big connector I was wondering how I can safely and without damage to my self, separate them,
I have a slight disability with my hands, so any advice would be apreciated, thanks in advance

There should be a tab either on one side, or possibly two sides (been a while, can't remember for sure). At any rate, press that tab in while sliding the connectors apart.

It will probably be a bit stubborn, just keep constant pressure on the tab and wiggle both sides of the connector until it pops free.

Mechanix Gloves are highly recommended for preventing bruises and chipped knuckles

First, take the connector (still connected) off of the metal clip that holds it to the engine. It has an interlocking feature it can't be unplugged while still on the clip.
