Well, I've made some progress, if you can call it that. I was able to remove the cable from the assembly by pushing a very tiny, narrow, thin screwdriver into the tab. Then I reflowed the solder on the metal strips and put it back together. After testing it is still intermittent.

The fuses already checked out fine. So now I'm looking at the relays. Maybe the microswitch really should be replaced instead of only reflowed. Still not there, but at least I've got the top latched so I can drive it to work tomorrow.

Cheers.
