Default Need Desparate Help on Limp Mode Fix

Okay I am replacing my conductor plate and sensors. Everything is going fine. I am actually down to dropping the old conductor plate. Did all of my research and watched videos. What is holding the plate from dropping and being free for removal is that there is a an electrical harness that has t o be disconnected. For the life of me I have tried for an hour to figure out how to actually disconnect the wiring harness from the plate or from the tranny so that the conductor plate can be freed up. I am stuck and need help bad. Please

Can someone chime in and explain how to release the electrical harness so the conductor plate can be freed up

If your talking about the external plug, there is a 'bolt/screw' down the middle of the connector plug (if I remember correctly). I don't know the size but someone else may chime in.

But the question is how do I even get to the center bolt in the middle. Does the top cap pry off or do I turn somehow the yellow plastic. For life of me I have been trying to get to that center bolt that everyone is talking about. Do I take a screw driver and pry the top off to get to it?

I am so confused and frustrated here. Will someone step in and tell me how to access the center bolt

Like darn Ala-X Fire I missed that video entirely. Can you believe I spent 3 hours tying to figure out how to remove that electrical harness. It is night here now and I will be back at it in the morning. I now know what to do thanks to all
