That happened to me, I just pulled it with my hands because it wasnt coming out far enough and it stayed. Maybe your has just been pushed back like mine was.

happend to me too. the mechanic put a little rubber stopper over the clip at the end....if this make sense....it's where the lock part goes into but it keeps hitting the bottom or top of that piece. so you put a little piece of rubber to raise the lid back to the original height. hope you understood that...lol.
