Title: Reel #1 spins free Post by: 777tow on October 24, 2012, 03:42:52 AM Ok.....so I popped my cherry fixing a few things and it turned out really well. I am back......I pulled #1 Reel out to get to screws for player tracking bracket. I replaced the reel after finishing and now reel #1 does not spin. I know there is something about making sure the reel is seated properly on the motor. Is this right? Anything else I should do? Thanks in advance!

try pulling it out and pushing it back in again. the notch feel you get is from the reel motor trying to hold the reel still I bet the machine still shows reels disconnected as well.

I made sure of that. Oh well...its fixed though. Thanks !
