Help! removing the oil sender connector

I'm been trying to remove the oil sender connector and can't seem to get it off. The moved the red tab, that I assume is the release, in several positions with no success. I using screwdirver trying to wedge it out did it won't budge. It there somthing I'm missing, It shouldn't be this hard. I hate to break the darn thing......Any help would be appreciated....

I finally got it out. I used a mirror to look at the other side of the connector and found that you have to depress a lever on the connector in addition to the red tab to get it out. It comes out easy when you know how.
