Jason65 is right. I used two small picks and the first time it worked. The second time I fought it for ten minutes. The third time I removed it it took four tries. My wife said to stick my tongue out the way I did it the first time. BAM out it came.

I wish she would of said something sooner. I found if I take the key off the ring it made it easier to deal with. Once you get it out make sure to use dielectric grease sparingly. Good Luck!
