corbin seat problem

[Paulmc]

I bought a rear corbin seat with the backrest over the winter. It would pop on and off no problem. Yesterday my wife and I went for a ride and seems to have jammed on the bike. I tried to turn the key and push down on the seat to release it and it did not work. What has me is as you wiggle the key the backrest is moving and it is very hard to move the key. Is there any way to remove the rear inner fairing from the bottom to get to the latch. There is a hat in the tail section so I really can't see the latch. Thanks for the help

I believe there is a way to access it through taking the front seat off

Sounds like there's something wrong with the seat. I would be happy to take it off your hands. I read on here somewhere how to get in there with 2 popsickle sticks so I'm sure someone will chime in.

Did you try having the Mrs. or yourself sit on it while the other works the key?

As I stated before The locking bolt with the cap allen head to hold the backrest on somehow became loose during our ride. Where it is positioned it wedges in the tray that the cable holder rides in so you cannot move the cable. Badassbusaboy and I had to push the screw over a bit to open the tail. It was not easy to get that open. I suggest making sure that bolt is tight every so often since I actually checked mine prior to that ride with an allen wrench. Now I hope it doesn't happen again since I used Locktight on it. But thank you guys for the help.
