Default Another Auto Stop/Start Question

I disabled the Auto Start/Stop feature in my 2017 by pulling the brake position sensor connector up under the dash. In 2017 it was white. Picked up a 2020 recently and wanted to do the same, but at my age I could not get a good enough look to do the same in the 2020. It is now black, and I could not find the tab that might release the connector. Does this method still work in 2020 to disable the feature? Any suggestions on pulling the connector? I tried to take a pic with phone, but it's a little blurry and I do not currently ahve a way to post.

Remove the 4-pin connector on the trailer module just like your old truck, there is only one 4-pin on the box. I did it on my truck until I got the Auto start stop eliminator. If you tow be sure to plug it back in.

Got it, just hard to see up there with my 74 year eyes. Just never got back to the internet to report.

Yup, the clip is a bit finicky, I try and be gentle with it, hoping I never damage it.
