Without a closeup of the connector it does look like a multilock type. At the back of it is a flap or door that needs to be released first.

This link is a picture of a housing with the flap open - https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/wire-...-plugs/3629165

Post a very good in focus closeup of the connector.

I have to add the usual though that all the connectors used on your bike are described in the service manual.

One thing that can happen is the pin may stop the tab from being lifted. Push the wire in from the back first, lift tab and then pull wire.
