I did it...somehow managed to get my air valve stuck on my Centro Matic and can't seem to get it unstuck from the outside.

Do i need to take the screwdriver and get the back plate off to unstick it, or is there a better way to get it unstuck?

Thanks for your help!
 
Take the screwdriver and remove at least the screw closest to the air button to lift the back plate a bit so you can wiggle the button back into place (with a small hook for instance).
The best solution is to remove all the screws and then the back plate comes off. Get a washer that's the right diameter and maybe 2 mm thick and glue it on the inside. The next time you push the button all the way inn the washer will hold it in place.
