Has anyone had this problem with their Honeycomb Bravo: Suddenly, the speed brake lever is flopping around loosely? This is because the lever shaft retaining E-clip has popped off making the tension knob useless for all the levers.
There is a great video online to show you how to fix this: https://youtu.be/X1_p76QG_lY
When you open the quadrant you should find three things rattling around: 1 metal washer, 1 plastic washer and the E-clip.
I’ve done a slight modification to hopefully help prevent this from happening again.
I simply replaced the supplied smaller E-clip with a larger e-clip that you can get from the hardware store.
I have a couple of pictures and the wiring diagram for removing the 6-lever assembly I can e-mail if you need them.
I'll be interested to see if anyone else here has this problem.
