Does anyone know how to take apart this remote on/off ASA?

This one has a leak - but it appears the pin is linked to the knob on the top. You can unscrew the knob but it simply binds up and will not be unscrewed any more.

I tried a needle nose pliers to unscrew or pull the pin on the inside - no joy.

Any tips besides cursing at it and its mother? I tried that.

I have the same problem with one that I think is that exact same part. I gave up. I have other remotes that work and I also remembered I hate remote lines, so why was I trying to fix this stupid thing?

The knob looks like anodized aluminum while the pin is steel, so there must be some kind of connection. Maybe throw some heat on it. If the knob is pressed on, the aluminum will expand more, might come off of be able to be pulled off. If it is threaded on, it might be loctited, and the heat might break it. It's already leaking, so who cares if you cook the seals.
