Philco 37-116 Auto Tuning

I am working on a 37-116 with auto tuning. The fine and speed knobs turn the tuning cap fine but the dial doesn't move. The auto tuning mechanism turns the dial fine but there is no connection to the cap.

In looking on Chuck's site and the service bulletin it looks as if there is a small pin (#22) that connects the 2 parts. I have looked all around the outside of the vernier drive housing and I can't find a pin. What am I missing?

Do you have any suggestions for me about how to proceed with this repair? I would sincerely appreciate any advice before I try to tear things apart.

Thanks,

Don Meyers
