Sounds like you are trying to separate the round connector on the 7-way of your vehicle so that you can install a fifth wheel trailer wiring harness like the # 41157.
There should be a grey locking clip on the 7-way harness like what is in the picture I attached. You will need to use a screwdriver to push that clip back slightly so that it can be slid back and off. Once that is off you will be able to press down on the center clip and pull the harness off. For more info check out the video that shows our installer doing this exact thing.
