>I did also have some problems with the shifter. I own a T2 though.
>I encountered 2 probs when I opened the shifter.
>First of all the *** to re-center the shifter was broken. I
>replaced it with an ordinary elastic *** wire ( sorry, I don't
>know the correct English word ).
>Secondly, one of the wires attached to the up-shift switch got
>tangled and had worn off its plastic. The worn off bit touched the
>switch and made a short circuit so it was inpossible to shift
>down because it would shift up again immediately.
>I just had to untangle the wire and all probs were gone.
>Hope that you can use this info for the T1 ,
