That was quick!
But, although your picture about the final position is clear, I cannot get it there. Should I be able to see the slot where it should fit into? There is no slot at the point your yellow line and the plastic part cross, or did you mean something else?
Ah ok I can see more clearly now yes it looks ok then - sorry about that! Out of interest is the solonoid able to move freely both ways on the pcb?
Ok, that's one possible problem down then 🙂
Yes, the solenoid can move freely.
ok
It does look like someone has pulled the mech apart before, there is a broken retaining pin on the arm return lever. Not essential to operation but makes you wonder!
There are a few interlocking pins and levers under that large cog that can become out of sinc not to mention the latch mechanism and the secondary cog - it will probably need to be removed and reset.
If the large cog does not move then you could try diss-engaging the worm drive - this is engaged where the silver lever meets the brass springy lever we were looking at before. You should really remove the cog to achieve this though - I personally really enjoy doing this but I would highly recomend the service manual (downloadable silver member) and a great deal of care as everything has to go back correctly. Great fun working out how the mech works and I have a lot of respect for the folks who design these!
Of course you could (and should) complain to the person you got it off!
