I concur. Usually dabbing with some Olive oil helps to lubricate the mechanism.

It will help if you also have some hummus at hand too.:y:

lol, some people

the trip switch is stuck or somthink.

this, dude. Unplug your battery, try to wiggle it and turn it around. If a fail, blow some compressed air in there. Change the part if failing again.
