Mod Wheel loose on NS3. Anyone can help share how to DIY fix?
Hello so today I took out my NS3 and I realised the mod wheel is loose. It doesn't really stick to a position so maybe something got loose there? It's on my Nord Stage 3 but I reckon some Nords have mod wheels as well so maybe the way to fix it might be about the same across Nords?
I read somewhere it should be a simple fix as long as you're tech savvy enough, but I can't really find the how to steps. Before I pick apart my Nord Stage 3 anyone know what's the procedure to DIY fix?

Sorry is it possible if you could label or pinpoint what is the nut in the picture you are referring to?maxpiano wrote: ↑20 Dec 2024, 09:13 See the small nut in this picture

The one in the very middle of the picture, which ties the grey "stone" modwheel body to the pot shaft (not sure if "nut" is the exact term sorry, anyway that thing)
In the thread I linked anyway, at page 5, in the first post (from which the picture comes) there is a detailed description of how to calibrate and fix a loose MW. Read it carefully and try to do the same

Good news, a simple tightening of the tiny hole using a tiny torx seems to have gotten the wheel back to normal. It's a bit tight but I think that is ok.
Bad news, I can't seem to screw back one of the bottom screws (the bottom left near the organ panel). A small price to pay for the wheel to be fixed I guess.
