I'm trying to change the MAP sensor on my 2009 5.7, and I can't figure out how to remove the connector. Also can't seem to find directions online for my specific connector. Photo attached (sorry for the poor photo quality)... Does the red tab slide outward, upward, or not at all? Any other suggestions?

Red tab slides back/out,then you have to push on the little tab that's behind it/farther out,and it seems to take a fair bit of thumb pressure on the little bit of tab you can get a thumb on to actually get it to release.If you can get in there with an air nozzle and blow it out,it sometimes helps,and it doesn't hurt to push it on a bit farther while pushing on the release tab to get it to release.
