Default Frontier AC Comp_Therma Protection Device

Hello,
Bought my first Frontier last week (a 2006 Nismo) and AC compressor clutch quit engaging...imagine that! Using OEM service manual, I found the electrical Thermal Device mounted on compressor is open; this is mounted on top of compressor where the harness clutch control wire plugs into compressor.

Does anyone know the correct/safe way to unplug the white rectangular electrical connector where thermal protector wire plugs into AC clutch? Pry with scredriver, grab with needle nose pliers or ? Thanks in Advance!

Default 2006 Frontier AC Clutch

Well...assumed it was the thermal protector mounted on compressor per the service manual. However, disconnected wires and ohm metered downstream of thermal device to clutch coil and there is infinite ohms and nothing to ground on clutch. The thermal device is not open and OK.

Has anyone replaced clutch or clutch coil without taking compressor off? I really do not want to evacuate / blow down the AC charge?
