If the key is broken off, use a good flat blade screwdriver and some penetrating spray, and you should be able to turn it.

on the backside there is a spot that you can drill out a plug ,then the key and the part that holds the key will come out ,then I took it down and had a key made ,put it back up in there ,then the drill bit that I used to drill it out ,cut the end off of the bit about a half inch and glue that small back where you did the drilling!!
