I cleaned and greased my Diawa 6000T reels and now (on one reel) the anti- reverse wont engage, can anyone advise how to fix this?
Thanks

When you reassembled did you make sure the antireverse pawl spring on the shaft of the gear sat back into the the antireverse lever. The flat face of the spring should locate into the gap on the lever mate

Oh how odd , theres a slight possibility that the grease has made its way onto the antireverse lever (internal one not the manual switch...... Daiwas terminology) which has a very light spring, this is located underneath the rotor in the main body, you can get to it without a complete disassemble thankfully and forgive me if you already know the following. Undo the rotor nut retention plate and remove (little black plate that sits over the nut). Slide a 15mm or 14mm socket head over the spindle( there should be a big enough hole in most sockets) and undo with pliers ensuring you don't slip and mark the splindle. Take the rotor off completely making sure you don't loose the washer that sits between the bearing race and rotor(these quiet often get stuck to the top of the rotor) you will see 3 Phillips headed screws, undo and gently remove the entire rotor/pinion gear assembly which also has a bearing, spacing collar, 2 antireverse cogs and a thin washer in that order. Be careful at this point as theres a plastic bush with a foot that the gear sits into, again this can become dislodged. Now you should be able to see a little sprung loaded tooth up near the top of the now exposed hole, this is the anti reverse lever. Clean away all excess gunk with a few cotton buds and maybe give a tiny drop if thin oil. Reassemble with the reverse order to the above and hopefully that will sort the issue mate

sounds like too much grease, I did the same with a GS9000, fine in summer heat but no good when cold LOL
