• Ultegra 6510 9 speed shifter no longer shifting down - doesn't seem to be engaging. So I can push the lever to the side, but it doesn't feel like it's "catching" the mechanism.

    Youtube said try spraying some WD 40 in, so I tried the GT85 I had to hand (which then dripped on the rim and I had a nice faff on to clean it all off). Regardless, it still doesn't work.

    Is there a meaningful way to get in to have a look? I've removed screw #5, and I can remove the nut that's on the same rod as #5 thread into. Will that allow further disassembly, or do I need to remove #9 and #10?

  • There are some similar issues with other STI levers. I wonder if they're the same as what you're experiencing.
    My issue was with a few 6700 & 7900 levers not engaging on the up shifts.

    There are a couple of similar threads to this:

    I think your problem might be deeper than that exploded view goes (inside the ratcheting part of the chonky top part of 'main lever assembly')
