Default disconnecting plug on inflation module

I'm replacing my turn signal switch. Does anyone know how the plug on the back of the inflation module comes off -- I don't want to force it. GM service manual is no help -- just says to "remove the plug".

Thanks

Follow up:

Since I got no response, I proceeded to gently probe the connector with a small screwdriver, and it just popped off.

Did learn one thing though (no actually two things):

1. Pay attention to how the bearing race retainer comes out; I put it back in place backwards and it took half an hour to diagnose why the wheel was so loose.

2. If you are working at night, no matter how well lit your garage is, you'll need a drop-cord. Don't hang it in the tilt-wheel lever; it's plastic and WILL melt if the bulb rests against it.

Live and learn.
