Hi, I have the same problem so please could someone post a bit more detail on adjustment - from above or below? How to get the cable tension right, etc.
Thanks

Thanks jamesmartin, I'll have a look underneath tomorrow to see if I can locate the cable and actuator adjuster. Don't suppose you or anyone else has any photos of the bit to adjust?
