Good Morning, Jos:

thanks to this information
from Riki, 4X4NJ.
Cheers,

>I've recently found the fix for this which is quite simple:
>1. Remove the rubber skirt on the knob.
>2. Loosen the set-screw using an allen wrench and remove the knob.
>3. There is a spiral spring wrapped around 2 parts - one being a
>small plastic washer.
>4. Remove the spring by carefully rotating it counter clockwise - it
>should unscrew and easily slip off of the assembly.
>5. Now, make sure the plastic washer is snugly against the part in
>back of it on the shaft.
>6. Next, carefully screw the spring back on by rotating it clockwise
>as it is being lightly
> pressed inward.
>7. Rotate the spring clockwise, as far as you're able to with your
>fingers (no tools!).
>8. Replace the knob, tighten the set screw, and put the rubber skirt
>back on.
>9. Enjoy!!
