The black clip should unclip from the rod, if not, you can unclip the top of the rod and unscrew it.

Ahhh. Brilliant Marc. I hereby annoit thee 'Chief Discovery 2 door fixer dude'....

I'll try this adjustment tomorrow.

Thanks mate. I wonder now if the original was really stuffed?

Any idea what could cause that black clip to slide along the rod - I can imagine it's possible if there was an amount of force applied to the mechanism AND the rod was immovable/stuck but I don't think that was what happened in my scenario.

Which nanocom are you using that displays the digits as letters?

I only ask as my evo shows the numbers, I also changed mine from having 3 of the numbers double digits to something far more wrist friendly.
