So there are two connectors for this distributor 22100-7B001

One is the wide 6 wire connector that attaches to body of distributor.

It is kind of a tight area with the hoses and I am having trouble removing the 6 wire connector.

I can see and feel what looks like a lever or tab in the middle of the connector at the underside of the connector.

I don't know if I should be depressing this connector (push towards body of connector) or lifting it up (pulling away from connector).

I don't want to force it and break the connector, then have to look for a replacement connector.

I figured out he other 4 wire connector had to slide the green slider with the arrow as far in as possible.

Any help would be appreciated.

In case this helps someone else, I got the connector off eventually. You need to press down (ie towards the connector body) relatively hard on the tab in the middle underside of the connector and wiggle. Dirt gets trapped in between female connector and male body and this make it kind of tight, plus it is an awkward area to work in with the hoses.
