    Hey Ren...

    Go to home depot or similar home supply store and pick up a replacement trip lever FACE PLATE.

    Then go home and unscrew the screws in old plate and swap the old one with the new one.

    The old face plate has a spring that has lost its compression! Super easy to replace... say about $10.00 to 15.00

    Let us know how you make out...
