Drag to rearrange

Use the point of a spudger to gently pry the proximity sensor out of its recess on the front panel.

Try to get your tool all the way under the sensor to pry it away from the clear plastic beneath. If you pry only against the cable, the sensor may separate from the cable assembly and will need replacement. If you're replacing the sensor/cable assembly anyway, then it doesn't matter.
