Mine always work.
Only one I ruined was an Astute one in 1988 or something.
Sorry!
@jontea it's probably melted the plastic nut that tightens the whole thing. If it's slipped enough the diff plates will melt too and the balls and plates will be toast as well.
When they die they die big.
The TA06 gear diff or whatever it is will be much better though, fit and forget.
