campy shifter lost its click

[Jim Flom]

my right-hand Chorus 10-speed shifter has lost it's click.
It shifts okay, but in moving the chain to larger cogs in
the back the shifter no longer clicks in setting the
position. Thumb shifter works fine. Left shifter works fine.
Two good bike shops suggested that as long as it's shifting
okay to let it go, that it would be labor intensive to fix
it. Made me wonder if they'd know what to do anyway. I'm
thinking it's going to be up to me to fix it right. Any
suggestions on where I can find a step-by-step walk through
to fix it? Thanks!

The 'G' springs need replacing. Please see the other threads
posted in the last couple of days about this (and see link
to instructions).

This I know. But what are some subject headings of these
other threads? I tend to follow things pretty
subjectively in here.

'Labor intensive?'..about 15 minutes, including taking it
off the bike.

I think Campyonly has a step by step. I'm thinking you
either broke a spring or the spring carrier. If you wish,
send it to me for a 1 day turnaround.
