there is a tab that you press and pull it out. most of the time it helps to push the plug in slightly , press the tab, and then pull.
why are you removing it anyways?

It's got to have a little thing to push on it somewhere. I'm not sure exactly which one it is from your pic but here's a bare block with the sensors still in it. I don't know if this will help at all but it's the most I can do at the moment.

Hmm, I am trying to think. I just removed/reinstalled my engine harness a couple of weeks ago. As was said, I am pretty sure there is a tab to push. Sorry I don't remember...

get a spray can of brake clean and clean it off real good
it'll be easier to grip, and should be more obvious how to release and remove it.
