The latch wont move at all. The button and handle seems stuck. The portion of the latch that normally goes into the hole with the sensor is slipped back and resting against the plastic.

Sounds to me like a mechanical issue that may require some persuasion!!

My thought as well but I thought I'd ask before I started prying on it. The last thing I need is to break it worse and end up with a top that I can't close. Tonight I'll see what I can come up with when I can spend a little more time with it.
