Hi all, tried to adjust the brakes on my Basestation today, but only 1 of the 4 was working correctly so started taking off the hubs to investigate.
shocked to find that both rear axle brakes had same issue - the magnet had broken off completely caused by failure of the magnet arm. Any ideas why the metal would snap where it locates into the magnet?
The 3rd brake is connected and located correctly and I can hear the magnet being energised (with the hub on, not sure if I can energise it with the hub off to actually see what’s happening or not happening) but not stopping the wheel despite the shoes being adjusted fairly tight. Any ideas?
