Are you not supposed to actually remove the Wires that are on a Connector inside the Blue Connector? I have seen Merc Connectors like this.....
The blue bit is a part of the Module Assy.

Hard to see as no photo from that angle, but looks as if there is a black locking tab from the module by the number 2 that needs prising towards the blue dot to release the connector.

Ok, done :D

thanks for all the suggestions.

Gave up picking and prodding and gave a yank upwards with pliers - popped straight out.

Photo below shows what holds it in. There’s really no way to release this other than just pulling it up to release.

Might be able to get a small flat bladed screwdriver in there - now you know it’s there...:cool:
