You push a new button, and the old one "un-pushes."

I don't have a lot of experience with this, because I've never seen a frozen one, but I'd bet if you sprayed deoxit or similar in and around the push button assembly you'd loosen some of the corrosion that is causing them to be stiff, and add some needed lubrication as well. The push button assembly does come out if you unsolder the wires and remove the two screws in the front, but I've never had to remove one.
