These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

My Wife was trying to put the top down and pushed too hard and caused the top dash button to disconnect for the horseshoe plate. How do you remove the horseshoe to reattach this button??? Thanks, Dale

POST 2Original post

That had to be one heck of a push! MY02+ is a single horseshoe, while MY99-01 are two separate halves separate from the top center vent. Either case, gently pull/unclip while using a plastic trim spatula or equivalent.

POST 3Original post

Dang, I wouldn't mess with her...as said above removing the shoe is pretty easy then snap the button back in....

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the help...it worked and she has been taught how to open and close the top...Thanks, Dale

POST 6Original post

My Dad's cab had this same issue last week, not sure how he could push the button through the hole... Anyway easy fix as other mentioned above, just carefuly pry the small right horse-shoe piece out & re-attach the switch back on. GL.
