While working and not succeeding on several other jobs, I decided my annoying ash tray was going to feel my wrath. It never sits flush when pushed back in. I don't use it, more play with it once in a while to reseat it. I pulled it all out, tray and rail and it looks like the spring loaded chrome pop up piece of metal from the tray is getting caught in a depression in the top of the carrier rail. If I look at the back end and put a small pry tool in there, I can get it to go the full way against the rails. It won't do this as it currently is assembled. Pressure does not work either.
I am at a loss to figure out what might be bent or misaligned to fix it. It's the only one I have for reference. I'll check the books to see if the pictures show anything. |
