Though it may not be much help, I've had the exact same problem before. Can't remember what I had to get it off for, but I never did.

may sound kinda stupid but are you pulling on the right end? you might be pulling on the piece that's attached to the bracket.

Easier to take it off the bracket and then unplug.
