The only three methods I know of (none 100% successful) are:
* Percussive. Some have reported success with a good bump, others have had to beat the feces out of it.
* Manual Reset. Remove the SLU and manually push the lock pin into the fully retracted position.
* Rebuild. Remove and disassemble the SLU. Verify switch operation and reassemble so the the locking pin is fully retracted and making the switches.

If you have tried all those without success, then you will have to buy a new SLU. You can save $$$ by replacing it yourself - it's an easy job if you have the right pliers.
