Bugaboo cameleon white handle release buttons sticky

SOURCE: The frame tilt seized on Bugaboo Cameleon

bUGABOO will send out free replacemnt buttons even if your pram is out of warranty you need to contact them. They will fix the problem but i had to put them in the oposite sides to what their instructions suggested for them to work so def a fiddly job but does fix problem.

HIYA.... YOUR BEST BET IS... TAKE THE HANDLE BAR BACK OFF AGAIN. TAKE THE SPRING OUT OF THE SIDE THAT WORKS FINE AND TAKE IT TO YOUR LOCAL DIY STORE AND GET A REPLACEMENT, IF YOU CANT FIND IT ASK SOMEONE IM SURE SOMEONE WILL BE ABLE TO SEND YOU IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION... PROVIDING ITS JUST THE SPRING, IF YOU BUY ANOTHER TO REPLACE THE BROKEN/LOST 1

THIS SHOULD SOLVE THE PROBLEM :)

Hi maristel5679. I had the same problem. It's quite easy to fix yourself. There should be a small philips type screw holding the whole assembly onto the frame. Undo this and you will see the inner workings. You just have to realign the ratchet inside. Do this by taking off the whole thing. Be careful when you place it back on the frame as it could slip out of line again because of the tension in the brake line. Undo the tension by slackening the brake screw. replace the hand-brake, tighten the philips screw, then remember to tighten the brake back up. Hope I explained this clearly!! Good luck.

Testimonial: "I did it already before you've posted it. I agree it works esp. when you're out of warranty. Bugaboo nah! you gotta buy a new one! $400US baby!Thanks!"

We had this same problem and I just fixed it today. What is happening is either the white plastic buttons expand with time (highly unlikely) or the black plastic housings shrink with time (more likely). To fix it yourself, you need to disassemble the buttons, which can be done with two screwdrivers, and sand down the edges of the white buttons to make them slightly smaller. Here's the process: 1. Behind the white button is a screw. Remove it using a phillips screwdriver. 2. You'll now have a black housing with a white button in it, held in by three white tabs. 3. Free the white button from the housing by pressing inwards on each of the three tabs in turn. 4. You'll now have a black base, a black surround (where the button sits), a spring and a white button. 5. Sand the circumference of the white button evenly until it slips easily in and out of the black surround. 6. Reassemble and repeat for the other side. Good luck, Jesse.
