i recentley tried to fit new brake sensors, easy job i thought until i tried to seperate the multi plug. it would not budge & i had already fixed the sensor on the pad. gave the job up in the end. though ended up snapping the new sensor. are they not meant to come apart once fixed. glad i never touched the other side

are they not meant to come apart once fixed

 

yes they do come apart cant remember whether they are a twist and pull or tabs 
it will stuck due to the amount of cr@p that gets up there give it a good soaking with wd40 and try again 
and as for snapping the sensor itself they do tend to clip in very easy but can be a pig to get out i found a thinnish screwdriver to pop it back out is best

hmm just noticed where you are  could have a look if you are stuck

Break the the plastic section between the tab and outer edge of the sensor end of the connector, then the broken bit just pulls off and is replaced by new sensor.

I find a small flat blade electrical screw driver ideal. Poke it down the side by the tab, lever it out breaking the plastic, pull sensor plug off.

Ps, only one sensor on face lift.
