The original battery of my 2015 Leaf is dying. It has severe corrosion around the + terminal and is causing all kinds of problems. After searching on this forum, I decided to replace the battery with an AGM battery or the Optima Yellow Top. When I attempted to remove the old battery, I used baking soda and water to remove the corrosion. First, the nut that allows you to tighten/loosen the connector broke. Then after I got the connector off, I noticed the connector had basically fallen apart.

All the videos and instructions for replacing the battery show the connectors in pristine connection.
How do I remove the old connector? Do I have to replace the fusible link that it is attached to? I don't want to break anything so I am wary of just yanking on it. Thanks in advance.
