    • The dial on the car thing is clipped on with a plastic insert in the dial rubber cover.

    • It is easy to pull off, be gentle and you should be able to pry it off with your fingers.

    • Be careful using metal tools as it may scratch or crack the glass.

    • Using a small flathead screwdriver or pair of tweezers, gently work your way around the silver shield to pry it off.

    • At this point if you want to remove the spring to enjoy a smooth feel on your dial, remove the spring.

    • Using a cotton bud, dab the contacts in some isopropyl alcohol to clean any debris or grease that can interfere with the dial making contact.

    • Don't forget to also clean the brushes (ring with metal contacts sticking up)

    • You can VERY slightly bend the metal tabs up to help maintain contact. Be very gentle to not break this.

    • Peel the clear plastic out of the rubber cover.

    • We must now align the clear plastic over the dial, there are 2 tabs thag must be aligned. Refer to the photo.

    • Once the clear plastic is installed, make sure the tabs are aligned and the rotation is smooth.

    • Do not force the plastic on if it is misaligned! It may break the plastic, just remove gently and try again.

    • Once the cover is put back on, check that the rotation is smooth.
