Shutter Release Button Won't Press Down on My Minolta SRT-101

[DF]

It's stuck - just stays upright. Might it be possible to get it going again via shutter release cable? I don't have one so could I carefully insert something through the 'hole'?
I think I might've accidentally jammed something when I tried to re-thread the film onto the spool or something simply got loose or stuck or whatever....

Hmmm...

Is your film correctly advanced? I know that my SRT can get finicky, when I think the film has been properly advanced, but no, there's still some bit to advance with the lever. So, if you haven't done so, just try cocking the film advance lever gently.
