    Thanks, everyone!

    I'm only so confused because I didn't notice the cracks when I initially went to open the pool, only when I went to connect the new pump I just brought home.

    I'll give it a shot with the WD40 and/or the taped flathead.

    Hi Christine, Get out all of the screws that you can and that will loosen the faceplate. Then you can go in from the skimmer opening side and snap the faceplate. You can do this without any damage to the liner.

    Best of luck, Dennis
