Hi Jamey,

If the rod came loose out of the box with the knob you will have to send it
back to Cambridge or a dealer for repair. The repair requires opening the
unit and re-sealing it.

I'm a dealer and I would be glad to fix it for you as long as that is OK
with Cambridge (I think it will be). But sending it back to the factory
would be just as fast and they may even pay the return shipping for you (I'm
not certain).

I've seen the problem only once before on an early 302 in the Ventus I used
to own. It was fixed quickly by Cambridge. If I remember correctly they
fixed it for free while doing the calibration (not free).

You can get the contact data for the factory from their web site he

Good Soaring,

The adjustment knob on the lower left of my 302 came loose today. It
was still attached to the metal rod that goes into the instrument and
it appears that a set-screw came loose from the far end of the rod.
Has anyone had this same failure?

Does you know if I can easily repair this or does it require breaking
some quality / calibration seal to get inside the case? I don't want
to take my panel apart thinking I can fix it before I fly Monday, if I
really should plan on sending it back.
