lol shoot me

Was taking out bms clutch stop and for some reason I was having a hard time. Finally got it, ( or I thought) but turned out the screw snapped in half and the other half is stuck in it.

Yeah man, I had a hell of a time getting it in all the way. There is no room up there. I'm gonna be removing it when I install the UCP and dreading it.

It's not a screw!

It's just push in / pull out with barbs not a thread. Use the pedal to push it home and snipe nose pliers like a fork to lever it out gently..

Not suprised it snapped off if you rotated it

I had to cut mine to get it out when adding the UCP version. Get a Philips screwdriver or a punch and just knock through the remaining piece with a mallet
