Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) VP44 Electrical Connector removal - What am I missing?

[SLightfoot]

Hey guys... .



I'm trying to pull the connector from the back of my VP44 to make sure the terminals aren't corroded.



But, how the heck do you get this thing off?



It appears to me like there is a locking device that has an upper and lower locking sheath pin (with the semi-circular handle) that should slide out to the left on the photo below. Is this how it works? The bottom side wants to move but the upper one seems like it's totally glued into position...



What's up here?

Thanks,



Shawn

It's a Beech, ain't it! :-laf :-laf



Get the locking piece loose towards the block, and the rest surrounding and locking the actual plug slides out horizontally towards the fender.



At least, that's the way I remember it...



Took me a full 5 minutes to figure the dern thing out!
