Front difflock knob jammed in?

Post by silverbullet »

I don't get this. When I bought it recently I pulled all the knobs and everything did what it should. Now the front difflock knob will not pull out. Didn't want to get brutal with it...
Oh, hang about - is it interlocked to the rear one? (that would explain the different switch body that protrudes through the dash)
:oops: :oops: :oops:
So much to learn :lol:

twist it about 75degrees and then pull it. it's so it dose not get pulled out by mistake and crash, the rear you can just pull. the front and rear are not directly connected to each outher.

Cheers mate. I thought that it must be something really obvious. But with no manual you have to wait until someone tells you... :roll:

There's a lot to learn with these, but lots of info out there too; from the wiki https://club8090.co.uk/wiki/Syncro_links_page and lots of technical info here too on the Syncronauts pages http://www.syncronauts.org.uk/
:ok
What a long strange trip it's been
