   Have you tried pushing the plastic tabs on the connector together then pulling?

   No mate there appears to be a square plastic piece on the switch(at the side)sometimes you can also prise off the switch from the connector by inserting a small flat blade screwdriver then gently lever it(be careful)

   There will either be a clip you pull or somewhere to stick a flat head screwdriver which pushes a bit of plastic inside and allows the switch the be pulled away from the rear part.
   
   It's french so it likely won't be logical...

    There will be a place to plush a flat head in which will release the front from the back.
    
    Failing that, rip the fucker out and rewire it
