1981 505 Spare Access


Recommended Posts

I know this is going to sound very pedestrian but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to release the spare tire frame. 
I figured it out once and remember thinking it was really easy but I just had a flat fixed and the tire shop could not figure out how to get it back into postion. 
I think that something may have become disconnected from the "release" in the trunk as it just pulls out. 

Owners manual shows using the spare tool and cranking it down but that does not seem appropriate for my car.
