Any ideas on how I can get this sucker out? I bought a new quick connect and the old one broke off while trying to install the new one. It's in there pretty solid as I normally have to use slip joint pliers to get it off. 20230531_111137.jpg
 
I would take a small chisel and break out that plastic. Be careful around those nubbings as that is what locks the connector in place. If you remove that face plate (the 4 screws) does that give you any better angle to break out the old piece?
 
Posting an update incase anyone else has this issue in the future. I was able to get it out using a pry bar with a 1.5 in end on it which fit in those slots perfectly and gave me enough leverage to turn the threads.
