Power steering pump connector removal

Hey guys, working on trying to pull my power steering pump and I am getting stuck on the single pin power steering pressure switch connector. I have looked around on all-data, youtube, forums and haven't found a good way to remove the plug. I have tried using picks, pliers, flatheads and nothing has worked although I have tried to be as careful as possible. I have been working all day so maybe there is an obvious answer and I am just tired. Any help would be appreciated.

I found out the way to remove the connector without cutting or destroying the wire.

I stuck a pick in the openings between the black plug and the white one and as soon as i created enough space the connector just slid out.

Hopefully this helps anyone if they are dealing with something similar.
