  • Unless bolt tv mount
    Should be standard bracket on back of tv
    Look down inside
  • Info is scarce and no pictures so I'm only guessing

    But it sounds like it is mounted on gas lifts
    And the push button, is for a latch release, kinda lie the push button for the trunk on some cars
    The latch broke, or the switch wiring is shorted and staying unlocked
    These are usually momentary duty, so if the switch stuck the unlock solenoid will burn out then not open
    It does sound like the spring behind the latch or the latch lever has broken
    You will have to get inside the cabinet to check this out
