ECU removal - stuck?

I'm trying to unclip my ECU, but it looks like the passenger side does not match any of the removal guides. The drivers side came off with the grey lever no problem. The passenger side though ALSO has a lever, but it doesn't seem to disengage the lock at all. I've removed the wiring loom boot and can see the mechanism, but can't for the life of my figure out how the heck it's meant to disengage.

Anyone else run into this?

For reference, AMR has this picture which has the tab on the left. I don't have that black tab, I have another grey lever.. (two total)

That's AMRs picture. I don't have one of mine. Either way I finally got it after resetting the levers position in the harness a few times.
