Strange looking plug in the ...

A/C unit. How does one disconnect the single wired plastic plug to my a/c compressor. I want to test for bad /clutch/coil and see if I can repair it.
I think I can leave it disconnected and still use my climate control panel. It keeps blowing #48 fuse. Thanks for your help.

Good day!

That one wire by the ground wire for the motor is just a wiggle and pull... It is similar to the knock sensor wires, just one wire version...

Cheers!!

OK, I'll give a try. I just want to disconnect to test the compressor and climate control module. Cool if i break the plastic housing; it is 17 years old.
