Re: Loose key?

So by "correctly engaged," I think you refer to the fact that the key is firmly attached to its rod (axle) and turns freely. If you look carefully at the other side of the key (from where you put the paper) you'll see that beneath the key tube there is a blue steel "pin" or rather a needle spring. If you reach just behind it (easier to do closer to the post it's attached to) with a 1.4 millimeter crochet hook, you can pull the blue steel spring just enough to get it around the "notch" under that key tube made to hold it.

Easier said than done without images but we ALL have LOTS more time these days.

[the size of crochet hook is important too. Too big and it won't fit. Too small and it won't grab the spring]
