1994 C280 Engine wiring harness question




I'm currently in the process of replacing the worn engine wiring harness in my new-to-me 94' C280. A lot of the plugs have ended up disintegrating on the old harness from corrosion and time itself. I've ran into this one main plug (circled in photos) by the windshield washer reservoir that doesn't want to budge. I've looked all around the plug itself and can't find any locks or tabs keeping it in place. I've tried going around the edges with a flathead and nada. I'm just trying to be as cautious as possible.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Probably dont need help anymore. Lol

Just letting you know that the clips are between the fender and the plug. Push out toward the fender and it should release and lift up so you can slide the plug apart. It has a curved groove that two pins slide in and lift out. I used a straight slot screw driver to slid the plug apart.
