Does anyone know how to release this wiring connector or what is holding it on?

I thought that it is suppose to release when the key is in position 1.
This information is from a fellow member...his key wouldn't turn so he had to remove everything the hard way.
"The switch assembly should now be free to move around a bit. The electrical connector on the back won’t let go unless you’re at #1. I did a fancy thing that I hope works for you: I took an orbital sander (the same sander I used to rattle the tumblers into position before I ever started this project) and sanded the switch until I could see the 3 screws that hold the electric part, back out of the holes! Now, I had to loosen them a bit with a chisel in between the 2 sections, but it worked. After the screws all backed out. I was able to separate them and pull the switch part out. It’s tight but it will go. Make it happen."
