Hello Dana, Sometimes you can get lucky and pull the connector out where the sensor screws in. If the connector will not come out, the unit will have to be pulled out from the wall and remove the rear panel to access the wiring. As a note, if this has to be done, leave the retainers loose so if it has to be changed again, you may be able to change it from the front next time.
