I use a small pocket screwdriver (flat). On some connectors you'll have to take the lock out. The lock is a slim red piece usually. You'll have to pry it out. Then you stick a small pocket screwdriver down into the connector on the opposite side of the wires. You'll have to push a little plastic tab away from the metal prong then pull the wire. If the wire doesn't come out pretty easily then you don't have the plastic prong pulled out right or not enough.
