Another strategy I use for stubborn couplers is to take a block of wood, like a 1’ long piece of 2x4, carefully position the butt end of the block on the “shoulder” of the female coupler and give the block a couple whacks with a 2lb hammer.
That will also break it loose. Then get to the bottom of the reason why they are sticking.
BTW, when I look at those remotes, they look slightly rusted. I’d hit them good with some spray lubricant that rejects rust & moisture.
