I have the broken command control problem and am in the process of doing the repair.
I have the unit out but I cannot get the ribbon cable connector off the rails that hold it in place below the cupholder.
I expect it just slides off but it appears to have some latch holding it in place.
Is there some "trick" to releasing the connector from the locating rails.
I have included a picture of what I am facing.
I am considering just doing the repair with the unit hanging out of the console but it would be much easier if I could remove it.

Any help in identifying how to release the connector from the locating rails would be appreciated.

This is the ribbon cable connector to the command control unit that is held in place below the cupholder on a set of rails that the connector appears to slide onto ... I cannot get it to slide off
