THANK YOU GRAND MASTER FOR YOUR QUICK REPLY! QUESTION... IS THERE NO WAY TO UNLOCK THE LID? AND IF NOT, WHEN I REPLACE THE LID SWITCH I HAVE TO TAKE OUT THE HINGE SCREWS AT THE BACK IN ORDER TO REPLACE THE SWITCH CORRECT?? BUT HOW DO I REPLACE THE SWITCH WHEN THE LID IS STILL LOCKED??

suck the water out with a shop vac, because at times, it will never unlock unless it gets the water out.
