Sorry, I didn't explain as completely as I intended to. I was wondering if the external pin (the one that pops out at the inside of the clamp band after the unit is installed) is used as a positioning mechanism only, or if it's somehow connected to the internal mechanism that causes the problem. Since I still have the old unit, I'll take it apart and do some exploring. Should have thought about that before posting! Also, once I get the internal spring out I'll have a modified one hand in case the new one goes bad.
