Question Help - 1990 Center Console stuck closed?

The center console is closed and one of the buttons that releases the latch is depressed with no resistence. Its seems that the latch itself and not the button has broke. Just wondering if anyone could guide me on the situation without having to tear up the lid and latch?

Thanks in advance.

Eric
