Help with my egg...

In the middle of a cook, my lid stopped opening all the way. I can only open it about a quarter of the way before it's in a bind or something. Anyone know what my first step should be? Thanks in advance!

  • Found another post where someone suggested posting pics of the hinge. After looking at both sides, this side looks very different. I tried loosening the bolt just to see if that worked but it still wouldn’t open. I guess technically this could be correct and the other side could be wrong. If I need to, I can post a pic of the other side.

    Check the bolts, one on the hinge probably tightened up, try and loosen them.
