I am in the process of tearing my inner fairing out to paint the inner fairing. I'm having difficulty removing the ignition knob. I've read the instructions in the manual atleast 10 times and tried the technique atleast as many times...unsuccessfully:huh:
I asked my dealers service manager if I could get a demonstration...instead he just told me in very crude terms how to do it...but it did sound different than I've tried.
I've been turning the knob to the accessory position, depressing the button on the bottom of the switch, then while pushing down on the key and knob, turning counter-clockwise 60* and trying to lift up....NO GO:duh?:
The service guy said to start with the knob in the middle position, put the key in the knob and while pressing down on the key, turn knob clockwise to the accessory position. I haven't gotten a chance to try his method; but it sounds wrong based on my memory of the instructions in the service manual.
I NEED to get this off so I can start paint prep. So if you can, provide pics...if not please just explain it in detail like you would an idiot
Thanks,
Clay
