v2 Gearbox, semi fires auto..?

[BROWNING91]

as title states... im not sure how this happened, but the only thing i could guess is the gearbox selector bar might have moved out of place or need replacing?
other than that "safe" & "auto" work fine so its not the fuse & selector plate moves like normal,

Any suggestions please.

Thanks.

HAve a look at the YAW control bar. That is the bit of metal that is moved by a cam on the sector gear (when it gets to the right place), and disengages the trigger contacts. It is actviated and deactivated by the selector plate, a combination of a spring that pushes it into place on semi and a tab that pushes it out the way on full auto.

Apart from Z1. You're the only person I've ever heard refer to it as a YAW control bar. Everyone else calls it a cut off lever. Good advice anyway.
