I'm almost positive that those two connectors holding it in are seized. Am i missing something? Do these connectors follow a rule that none others do?

Please help. I'm currently sitting in my car frustrated as all ****. I've spent the last 45 minutes trying to unplug the ****er, not even exaggerating

Those connectors with the green locking tab are tough. The way it is supposed to work is that you push down on the center green tab, pushing it into the connector. When the lip on the tab meets the gray or brown connector body, it should lock down in that position and the connector should be loose. Many times the tab does not lock in the down position and that's where it gets a little difficult.

What you have to do is push that green center tab down into the connector and while you are holding the tab down, pull the connector off. Your one hand is pushing down and your other hand other is pulling up. And it is important to make sure you have the green tab pushed all the way down before you start pulling.

You need to make sure that the entire connector is pushed down onto the TPS before you press the green tab.

It is a pain on those connectors. On the TPS, I use a pair of needle nose (with teeth) with my right hand to push down on the tab and pull slightly and with my left hand wiggle the connector body up and down while pulling the connector (never the wires). Hope this helps.

It's tough because there are 2 tabs parallel to each other on the TPS, so I need like 4 hands to do this. I seriously got so mad I climbed on top of the engine and was tugging at it with my hands, feet, teeth, etc. I looked like a caveman . I'm done screwing with it for the day though, I'll try again tomorrow
