In Over His Head
Hello friends!
Again I come to you with broken parts and my tail between my legs.
Was experiencing some sudden serious shifting issues and was told to check the springs by the star shaped shifting mechanism and shaft.
I apologize in advance for my ignorance of the terminology of everything.
When I opened up the RH case cover, these fell out:
^Washer and uh...some sort of....broken...thing?
^Washer's pretty thick
^Here's the...er...thingy
I poked around and saw some sad looking torn metal (like the shearings from a stripped thread) in this spot. I put the thingy in there and it fit perfectly...even sort of actuated against the star shifting mechanism. So this is where it came from:
^ another pic
Also noticed that there seems to be a peg missing from behind the star shaped shift mechanism. Can't tell if this is normal or if it's been sheared off somehow:
Here's the whole thing at a glance as it is now:
My questions:
1. What broke?
2. Why did it break?
3. Where is the thick washer from?
4. How do I fix this?
