Technical How to remove rear wiper motor

[deepbass909]

The motor of my rear wiper is seized and I want to replace it.
Following the guide in elearn is simple enough (step 1: remove wiper arm, step 2: remove inner panel of the tail gate, step 3: drill out rivets and disconnect the motor). But... How on earth can I disconnect the motor???

Is it latched or is there some locking tap somewhere? Because whatever I try, the connector seems to be stuck solid in the motor.

I managed get it out, with some help from a junkyard Punto to practise on. For future reference, the plug does have a locking tab that needs to be depressed to release.
