Mine broke on my ML years ago, (kid thing). What I did was to fold a piece of paper several times and wedge it between the top of the ashtray and the bottom of the storage bin. The pressure the paper exerted was enough to force the other spring in a position where it could work, and viola, fixed.
Open the ashtray, and use your fingers to push up under the bottom of the bin. If you try to open it and it's normal (slow) the paper fix will work. If not, see the start of these instructions. (Its from Mid City Engineering, also a forum sponsor)
