Mend Briggs & Stratton Lawn Mower Engine Repair

pull cord on a briggs and stratton engine won't retract?

The pull cord on a my briggs and stratton engine won't retract. I took the housing which holds the pull cord off the mower and I don't see anything broken. I can tell if the spring is broken or just come loose.
