Any idea why it won’t open from the handle?

Have you had a look at the square external rubber part of the switch ?


As they get older they can cause problems, I had a similar problem on one of my old Mk1's.


I pulled the rubber out of the hole, it's easy, it's like a square grommet, to check the action of the microswitch, pushed my finger on the microswitch, it worked OK.


The rubber, from memory, was distorted and aged preventing full depression of the microswitch, I used it without the rubber for a month or so till I found a good one off a scrapper.


I think some one did a bit of a write up on it quite a while ago.
