Some of you may remember my response to Ed Pauly in the thread Max Air Vent Install! [w/pics] letting him know that my vent broke right after telling him to "not worry" about his MAXXair vent lid impacting the cover. Figures.
The part that broke -- shattered, actually (see pics below) -- was the Lid Lifting Gear. 5 minutes searching YouTube and Google and I found a lot of entries. This is not a well made part.
The video below drags out the process, but it does (eventually) show the repair if you are patient enough to sit through the whole thing. (It took me less than 5 minutes, start to finish, to execute the repair.)
Bottom line: if you have a powered MaxxAir fan vent lid you might consider getting one of these gears and tossing it in your spare parts bin. You'll eventually need it.
