eccentric shaft sensor plug will not come off.

Trying to do a compression test, but the eccentric shaft sensor plug won't budge. Is there a clip I'm supposed to push in or is it just stuck on there good?

there is a tab to push...and then it takes a good tug...don't pull on the wires

Slot screwdriver between the plug and the body of the sensor used carefully works well....

Harlan, did mine today with relative ease once I worked out the button. You need to press button/clip which is most likely on the underneath the clip facing the road. Press it in and pull the clip away from the big wheel.
