What's the most likely cause.....

Can't praise these little sockets highly enough.

Liked them that much I also bought the extra sizes:

Not cheap but have paid for themselves many times over including getting the upper rear shock bolts out that I had managed to screw up.

Definitely worth getting the extra sizes

I've got some of those. Ironically only had the need to use once and they didn't work that time. That said, I ended up having to smash the (duff) starter motor casing to bits to get that bl00dy b*stard bolt out (it had been crossed-up with a windy gun I think). Have heard they are good though.

really surprised to hear that.

My cruiser was a complete rust bucket underneath when I got it and have had nothing but grief getting bolts shifted.
Would have needed local mechanic on speed dial without these.

Anyhow, I can only report my experience of them. Up to folk if want to hand over the cash for them.

I got the actuator off today. Two magnets had come loose. Stuck them back on and got the motor working on the bench. Will stick it back on tomorrow.

Thanks for all the help.
