SOS button cover won't close... wtf? lol

yeah, I just popped it open a few weeks ago and haven't been able to close it...

I think that's what the problem is... that thing won't hold the little cover [img=http://img148.imageshack.us/img148/3121/07092009962.jpg]
I'm thinking about just gluing it and get it over

It's not like I have tele-aid service anyway so...


Here's a little video I just put up

It is just really annoying hanging down like that
I'm thinking about just gluing it

You're looking for a new touch latch.

I have the same problem, Looks like the receiver part of the latch is forced open
and possible broken. I temporarily fixed it by breaking off about a 1/2 inch piece of
the pointy part of two tooth picks, and sticking them behind each side of the latch
for support. This holds the latch closed. Than just close the latch, lol.
It's mickey mouse, but its closed, and I'm not planning on using the sos button.
