Floor board latch should be connected to a cable. If you can peel the plastic cover back at all to get to it you can pull that cable with pliers. Note only pull til it clicks. Over pulling can damage the latch mechanism. Probably part of the plastic latch broke. You can buy these aftermarket pretty cheap replacements.
