I want to change the air filter in my 2011 GS 350, and to make my life easier, I want to disconnect the MAF wiring by releasing the electrical plug.

Before I wreck the plug trying to get it apart, can someone tell me, with a picture if possible, exactly what I have to squeeze, prod, or push in order to get this connector to release?

Thanks,

Ken

On mine there is a rubber cover that says push. Push on that point and just pull out. Might as well clean the sensor and throttle body while you are at t

Just for anyone else trying to disconnect this connector, if you look carefully at the top of the connector, you can see a small pin or protrusion which sticks up from the connector. I found that if I squeezed the top and bottom of the connector, this pin would retract, and the connector slips right out. Guess I'm on a roll! Ordered air filter, cabin filter, and extra cover clips online, and am ready to go. Thanks to this forum for great info regarding the replacement of the cabin air filter and how to reset the clips. Found great prices at an online Lexus dealer...pm for name if interested.
