im specifically trying to adjust it to get the contacts on a new track path..

you have to bend them downwards a little bit.

I haven't done it, but I read the article on a porsche website a while back. visually, it looks like the attatched picture. by bending it somewhere in the middle, it will sweep a lower part of the track.

I have that article on my computer in pdf.
How can I make it available to the forum.
I am a dipshit when it comes to computer stuff but if its easy to do I'm game.

you can email it to me as an attachment... im not sure if this site will allow pdfs for attachments..

There is a picture of the contacts at post #71. Basically just bend them little so they touch a different portion.
