Any thoughts on how to get the chuck open, can't figure out why it is stuck.
Thoughts?

Drill backwards a little. I had a square shank bit slip a little and it kind of wedged itself in the chock. 2 seconds drilling backwards in pine let me take it out.

Chucks can get stuck if dirt gets in the mechanism. Sometimes, spraying with penetrating oil inside helps.

Oil it. Take a center punch and gently tap on the 3 chuck jaws while someone turns the chuck.

First thing I'd do is soak it in penetrating oil or WD-40 and tap on it.
I've had the jaws get stuck on a few of my cordless drills that I got unstuck with either a vice or large channell-locks, but its almost impossible to do that operation without permanently jacking up the chuck to some extent.

Mine did the same thing. I got it wet during a hurricane dealing with a leaky roof. Penetrating oil and putting it in the vice got it open.
