Default I pull the cable with one hand and pry up the cap with my bare fingers of the other

Last year I was always able to get it open this way.

This year I've been spraying the little spring with WD-40 every time I wash my car. So far, it has always popped up for me.

Build a heated garage, then leave the car there to warm up? ;-)

Default No hairdryer needed. The temperature hit 24 (up 16 degrees) this afternoon. That did the trick :-)

Thanks everyone!
