Disconnecting Lower Battery Pack HV Connector

So on occasion I inspect the HV connectors and such, just to make sure no corrosion is happening.
I wanted to disconnect the HV cable to the lower battery pack, but just could not do it.
I was able to push in the very tiny blue tab and then slide the larger blue tab that releases the handle, but I could not get the handle to raise. It was like the large blue tab needed to slide more, but I could not make it happen. Tried poking and prodding all over the connector, but though the large blue tab was definitely separated from the release handle, something was preventing the release handle from moving.

For those of you who have removed the lower pack, how did you get that handle raised to disconnect the HV connector? Thanks

Bumping because I would like to do this Saturday.
Surely somebody has disconnected the HV harness from the lower battery connector, right?
