BLOWER MOTOR REPLACEMENT, NEED HELP!

I’ve seen a couple other threads on here going through how to remove this but so far I’ve unhooked every connecting wire to this and as you can see only turns half way. Do I really need to man handle this thing or do you all have any ideas. This is on a 2011 C350 and the pink connection is actually on the motor unlike earlier 204s where it’s not and I can’t figure out how to get that off even though it shouldn’t prevent me from twisting the motor

Lifting the tab up that's at 7 o'clock in your photo and rotating clockwise doesn't do it?

Thought it turns counter clockwise? Pretty sure it’s supposed to turn more than it has. I’ll try pulling down on it tomorrow morning or else I really have to manhandle twisting this thing
