iMiev Gear Selector Trouble & Camera Malfunction

[Lucius5NEB]

I’ve been noticing a couple of issues with my iMiev/Ion and was wondering if anyone else has come across them. The gear selector lever occasionally gets stiff and hard to engage. A local garage greased the cable, which helped a bit, but the problem’s still lingering.

Also, there’s been an intermittent glitch with the reversing camera. The camera and display seem fine when they work, but the connection is hit-or-miss, possibly due to the gear selector switch. Anyone dealt with these quirks before?

I’d say they used a degreaser to clean it but didn’t actually lubricate it properly afterwards, but you can do this easily by yourself:

possibly due to the gear selector switch.

Most likely indeed…
