Should be a large connector block with the lines molded into it that plugs onto the back of the control panel. Here is a diagram showing the line colors and locations.

So I just pull them from the back of the unit? I can not slide it out far enough to see and I do not want to damage anything.

Work them a bit and the unit should slip out enough to get the lines off. It will be tight.
