Try this, while pulling the handle (and make sure the things unlocked) take a smallish screwdriver and gently pry up and out on the lock bar.

Thanks, joep.

Worked by using one of my retired dentist father's dental scaler tools.

Thank God!!!!!

Just before a rainstorm.

Saved me a trip to the repair shop!!!
