I had to repair the chair's electrical mechanism.
I followed some YouTube videos, the work was quite easy and I tried to work in an orderly manner:
I also found out what caused the plastic gears to eat - one of the rails of the chair was moving heavily, which overloaded the gear to the point of breaking its teeth.
I put WD40 in the bracket and tried to move it back and forth, until the rear ball bearing flew out of it...
Now for the questions:
1. How can I disassemble the two parts of the rail and install a new bearing in it?
2. Where can I get such a bearing or do I have to get a whole rail?
3. I understand that there is a metal gear that replaces the plastic one. I'd love a link to a product that fits.
