RE: AI M3A Selector Frozen - FIXED!!

I put her on the bench this afteroon. Took the Selector knob off (1/16 inch hex); Loosened the coupler (7/64 inch hex), and selected a wrench to loosen the knut on the front of the unit (under the selector knob position). I found my 7/16 inch wrench and gently started to loosen it. As I did so I noticed the entire shaft started turning. A quick check showed this solved the entire problem!

My earlier diagnosis of a "frozen bearing" came directly from Audible. Gosh what a waste of time and money that would have been if I sent her in. She's working fine now, thank you all for your great suggestions and help. I hope this post will help another down the road. John
