Ok, I was messing around with the inside of the wheel to try to fix the excessive slop of the wheel, which i think i fixed. Problem is, i created a much much greater problem, as both of the steel cables that wrap around these two plastic wheels have become undone, and I have no idea how to wrap them up the right way. Can anyone point me to where I can find out how they are supposed to be fitted? Thanks.

Haven't done it myself, but research has led me to http://members.xoom.com/JensSchu/LogiCorner.htm Check the "ball bearing manual" article - it explains how the unit comes apart, and as an added bonus, also tells you how to put it back together again! -- s i m a g e r y @ h o t m a i l . c o m

OK, I looked at the instructions, i understood them, but after 5 hours of trying to reattach these goddamn cables over the pulleys only to have them pop out time after time and having to start from scratch i must give up. Would Logitech replace my wheel ?

It can be done. Honest, I've done it. You just need to put in another 5 hours or so. :)

I would think you voided the warranty by opening it up. You could try to get another from the retail outlet you bought it from... This didn't come from me, but you **may** get away with putting it back together and make it look like the cable "snapped" in two...... ;) Most of those joints will simply exchange it and claim a refund from their supplier... tampa <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:8ik8ti$7jf$[email hidden]...
