It may be a different problem, but the cam is attached to "flipper" post by two
1/32 inch, I think, roller pins. I had this problem and these were sheered off
allowing cam to go too far and lock the pilot on. Purchased replacement pins
at a local Fastenal store.

Joe, Mine did that and the local Raymarine dealer had me tighten the belt. I
had to fiddle with it for a while but I'm not using the bungee cord anymore.
Good luck,
