Look for the spot where it broke off, use a screwdriver or butter knife to pry up on the remaining plastic
Put a screw driver in the hinge up top or in the hole where the key goes and force the lock
SOURCE: cannot open glove compartment handle broke
If you raise the handle and look under it,you will see a metal loop sticking out,If you grab that with a pair of needle nose pliers Or other small pointed object and pull,It will open.
SOURCE: I have a 1995 Saturn SC and the glove compartment handle is broke
take a small precesion screwdriver and push the lever inside the housing ,that should do it.hope this helps
SOURCE: broken handle to glove box in my Galant
This happened in my '01 galant as well. If you take a peek under where the handle used to be, there's a little square nook with a spring and a little plastic tab. take a key and stick it right above the tab and press down, and the glove compartment should just pop right open. If it doesn't work, then it's probably just locked. Just unlock the door and try it again.
SOURCE: The handle to the glove
does it have a key lock on it an if so open it like that or buttter knife or credit card an try slidein it in the latch
SOURCE: Glove box will not open
you will be causing further damage no matter what. you will have to pry the door open or break the lock assembly out of the glove box door. be carefull to only damage the door because repairing the dash is a lot harder and more expensive. obtain a new glove box door and latch and you will have to get a copy of the door key or have the lock re-keyed to use the lock again.
