Relay Actuator Repair

I am using a similar stack as an example. The main difference is that your stack will still have all the wires connecting it to the game.
Now you've got to remove the small spring that holds the actuator plate to the relay frame. To see this spring simply turn the frame to the side so you can see the entire relay frame.

Carefully slip the spring off the top latch on the actuator plate.
Jeffrey is using a relay assembly that has no coil in it. Makes things
easier to see. You do not have to remove the coil to do this job. I usually leave the
spring attached to the plate and slip the other end off the tab. It'll stay on the plate by itself, but will usually fall off the tab end.
