Have you tried cleaning the boot release bars as they may just be dirty.

That's what I was about to say!

Do you mean it won't even "pop" open. If it pops but does not open up on it's own, then it could be that your tension bars are worn out, as this happens over time, they loose their spring.

I vote Rabsters option. Turn the key 90 degrees and it should work.
