I can't speak for the 05 onwards model, but the switch modules on the 98-02 corollas gave stacks of trouble, and are hard to get secondhand (and expensive new).

This one is simple enough, stick a cocktail stick or a small steel nail down beside the button and it will pop up.

Thanks for the replies!

Got it sorted along the lines of Colm_mcm suggestions

Used a kitchen knife instead-got it freed!

Thanks again!
