Your Ash Tray and Coin Tray Stuck? Look Here. Fix Write up in side with Pics!
Not sure if this is the right section. I just bought this 04 disco last night and found out that my trays would not retract back out it got pissed me off so I decided to fix them.
I started by taking the trays out by pushing on the tab to be able to pull the tray out shown below:
After I got the trays out there are 3 phillip head screws on both sides behind where the trays fit. Take those screws out and the complete housing will come off.:
After the housing is out you will discover (lol) that the spring retainers on the plastic housing will be broke off. Just grab a couple small but stron zip ties and use 2 on both springs to hold the spring tab in place tight against the housing. Tread the tie between the small opening that the spring arm itself goes through and through the broken opening of the housing. pull the ties tight to hold the spring tab tight:
And a video of how the trays should function:
