Hi - in the same boat here with broken mounts, but haven't yet moved into the new house to get a workshop going to do anything in yet (grrrr!!)

Just moved to Christchurch...

Hi all,
After hering about the woos regarding the stepper motors I removed the radio and the OBC to check mine. The two stepper motors were broken from the mounts. I am thankful to the descriptions given in the archives for repairing the mounts. My question is I have another problem. In trying to remove the right stepper motor from the actuating rod, the rod got loose from the bottom. I think the connecting arm to the flap on that side jumped out from its hold. I removed the rubber cover from the vent door and could see a plastic arm at the end of the rod. Cannot take it out of the vent.
Please let me know how to fix it back. Have I got to open the heater box and if so how?I am planning to mount the two motors.
Thanks a lot in advance.
