The click clack waste button in the bottom of the bathroom sink is stuck again.
It's stuck in the in position, and I've tried rotating it counter clockwise, and using a plunger to unseal it and it's not working 馃槱

Are you able to grab the little button vertically with a pair of pliers? Using a cloth or kitchen towel in the jaws prevents scratching.
@BobLefridge It's stuck under the sink line so I can't grab it at all 馃槵
@BobLefridge I just tried finding something to fit between the button and the sink edge but nothing fit's it's too tight a space.
@craftygardennz @BobLefridge I've had the same issue in the past - managed to get it out with some 'spudger' tools - thin strips of metal used to open up electronics like cellphone cases to service them. They cost a couple $ on Aliexpress, but that won't help you immediately. Once you get it open, spray a lot of CRC/WD40 on the spring loading mechanism and clean the silicon gasket (I got a few spares at the hardware store last time I was there - a couple $ each)...
