ABS Module Removal

I'm virtually certain my ABS Module is shot, and I need to remove it and send it in for rebuild. There's a connector on the top of it and I can't figure out how to get it off.

Anyone know???

TIA

From the end of the connector ,you need to slid it to the right (going toward the engine) the plug will pop right out.

correct me if i am wrong here (its been s while)... on the short end of the connector, opposite to where the wires are, there is room for a flat screwdrivfer - you stick the screwdriver in it, and using it as a lever, pull the "slider" out, in the direction of the long axis of the connector (to the left on your picture). it will unlock the connector and as you continue sliding the "lock", it will push the connector vertically up...

not sure if explained it right...

also, there are 6 torx screws, the bottom left is the hardest to get, the bottom right is the next hardest... start with them first, as you will need the leverage to turn them (make sure you do not strip the heads of the bolts), and then move to the easy ones. you might need a flex shaft in order to get to those bolts...
