2013 C30 Stuck Center Console

Post by BlackThunder »

Hi everyone, my center console is completely stuck for some reason. It worked on Thursday then after a hot day in the sun it decided not to open at all. Either the top mini part or the main part. The latches seem to be moving but they aren't disengaging.

Any ideas how I can get this open? Especially without breaking anything?

Thanks.

Update on the broken center console. My dealer said they had never seen this before. They had to order a new hinge and I have to drive back (2 hours) to get it put on. This will be ANOTHER 4 hour day in the car. I wished they would have just ordered the part like I had asked over the phone instead of making me drive the 240 mile round trip to the dealer and back. Oh well. That's what happens when you live in the boonies.
