I had to hit a couple of mine with some WD_40. Seems like a little dirt was locking it up. I also noticed that the little screw driver i was using was not pushing the lock far enough so i needed a pick to pull it a little. I needed a flood light and some younger eyes to see what was going on. I coated with dielectric grease before i reconnected and it made it much easier to pull apart the second time. After the fuse thing i am now a big fan of the stuff.

Thanks for all the advise. I have some Coors Light left over from when my son brought some over for x-mass but I may go to the ABC store and get something stronger.

They come out, look at the way they are inserted an apply pressure to the tab that secures them in. Once you get the first the others will be easy as you can see how its made
