Replacing Lever Lock Left Side Upper for CP3505

[Kevin_Mitchell]

The lever lock for the black cartridge of my CP3505 broke (part RC1-7618).  I have a replacement but can't figure out how to replace it.  I've got as far a removing the large PCB on the left hand side so I can see the fixing that retains the lever lock, and the spring that tensions it.  But I can't work out whether the metal retaining pin can just be removed from that side, or whether I need to remove further parts to access the lever lock from inside the printer.  Has anyone replaced this part, and if so has any suggestions for how to do it.

Thanks.

I have replaced a lot of these, and hated when it had to be done.
