A "worst case" is the pin could be broken off. I've seen it happen. The options are to repair the adjuster by adding a new pin somehow, finding another meter with the same or similar cover for parts, or adjust it to zero by hand with the cover off, then put the cover back on and hope for the best. 73 -Jim -- Ham Radio NU0C Lincoln, Nebraska, U.S.S.A.
