The strap connecting the bar to the inside mechanism is failing to retract and has pulled out considerably.
Can I repair the mechanism myself. I have not opened it up yet.

Hello,

The same thing has now happened on my Ultrafit rowing machine.
The strap has now become completely disconnected. Upon opening up the rower it seems that there is a spring inside the mechanism which retracts the strap and this is failing to work.
I'm unsure of whether this can be fixed as it is coated in grease and I cannot see it entirely.
