Sorry haven’t been around lately, but thought I’d check in since I’ve got small issue with the Lincoln.
As the title says, has anybody else had this problem? The only way to get the button to “come out” is to bang your hand on the top of the shifter until it slowly inches out.
Took the knob off, and examined it to see what could be causing it to bind. Saw some minor injection pin marks and mold lines (from manufacturing) that I sanded and polished out. Still sticking.
Next up, I wanted to put some graphite in it, didn’t have any, so while trying to find a substitute came across some “ahem”... “personal lubricant.” That made it a little better, but it’s still sticking.
Got some graphite now, gotta clean it out and see if that helps. Otherwise I think it's gonna need a stronger spring to pop the button out.
Any other ideas?
TIA
