how do I remove towel rod without set screw
I just closed escrow and moved in to first home. Lots of repairs needed. Bathroom has Delta brand towel rod using "Quick Click" install btacket. The rod fell off wall--loose dry wall anchors. I cannot remove the install bracket from rod end. No set screw and uses Quick Click install bracket. How do you remove the bracket? Found lots of sites showing how to install but not how to remove. Please help

I guess you have the mount in your hand. Put s screwdriver in mount hole and push down against spring and tilt top out. I guess a #1 or 2 Phillips would fit.

Pull upwards on the base of the bracket slightly and tilt the top down.
To install, do the reverse. Connect the bracket at the bottom, push up and in, and then down until the bracket locks.

Just a wire supposed to press down but
the space is very small. Cannot find screw driver or other flat narrow object that will fit in small area where wire is and push it down. Delta doesn't even have info on how to remove. Maybe removable while firmly attached to wall but no way to hold end piece in hand and compress wire.

All you need is something round to stick in the mounting hole and move the mounting plate down.
In the picture, you are trying to push the bottom of the spring up.
The horizontal arrow points to a lip (cam). The spring must be pushed up far enough to clear the lip and pull out or off. The spring isn't too strong.
