It should just pull right out. But I've had problems with them in the past. You can't just wail on it, because it's a relatively delicate part.

Will it rotate in the bore? Mine would, so I lubed the b'jesus out of it with WD-40 while I was rotating it. (I think this did help the WD-40 penatrate.) Then I wedged a flat-head screwdriver between the sensor and the hub, and pried on it while I continued to rotate it. (I had to get on it pretty hard.) I wouldn't necessarily recommend this for your situation, because you could get away with cleaning your sensor by simply taking your rotor off. But in my case, I was removing the whole hub/strut assembly from the car -- so the sensor HAD to come off (even if it meant breaking the sensor.)

Needless to say, if you do get it out, lube it well on re-assembly.

Good luck.
