I just recently got a 650MX and the lid does not open properly. When closed the release button releases the lid but it only opens about an 1/8". I checked the mechanism and it is free and the spring is properly tensioned. Once the lid is opened about an inch then the spring will open it the rest of the way. Obviously there is something wrong with mechanism, but without seeing one that works properly it is hard to figure out what the problem is. Access to the mechanism is almost impossible without removing the speaker and chassis. So before I dive into it, I'm hoping for some advice.

Thanks in advance.
