Default Electrical harness to alt -99

At least I'm consistent. Always the electrical connectirs that trip me up. Alt all unbolted and ready to come out. Being held up with a bungee so I can remove this clip. View from top- got it turned as far as it'll go to work on it. I found what I believe to be the tab (tip of screw driver in pic). Tried a little wd40 and pushing tab then gently prying it away. No luck. Which way does it go pls? Thanks!

Poop. Follow up question. This is what the connector looks like. Gunked up with white-ish biz. Is it ok to shoot this female side with elec cleaner or do I need to be doing something different? Thanks in advance for advice and patience

Clean it out using CRC QD Electronic Cleaner. Agitate with a paint brush, or acid brush, if required.


Some d' bag used Dielectric grease or something in there.
