    It's a voltage regulator, and the plug just pulls off. :thumbsup:

    Looks to me like a screw is missing. On mine the plug is at the bottom and two self- tappers hold the voltage regulator on, not one and a spare Westfalia hole. ( cost extra as an original German fix:burp:ing hole ;))

    How did that smiley get in there? Appropriate.

  5. Just spade connectors might be a bit corroded. Give it a waddle as you pull it
    as the actress said to the bishop :burp:

    Use the Force ..

    Carefully levering with a flat blade screwdriver against the case may be needed. Its three spade connectors held together in that plug.
    Or animal method is to find a tiny pair of mole grips and wind the screw out with that...
