Shift AFD loose

Hello fellow ski people.
Just went to check on my skis and saw that the AFD is loose and doesn't hop back in position like on the other binding. Is there some kind of spring inside that keeps it in place that got lost or something?
Does anyone have this probleme too and knows if it's tragic or nothing to worry about?
Thanks

Did you screw forward and backward through the adjustment range to see if that changes anything?

Honestly I would probably take them into a shop and see about a warranty repair of that's an option. The AFD on those are super finicky and need constant adjustment, you don't want anything to fail out on the mountain or backcountry.

There is a spring (sometimes 2) inside, they can become loose or pop out on occasion. Happens realtivly often on bindings with the sliding AFD. Most of them are pretty tricky to repair so I'd just get a new AFD through a shop.

Is there a spare part available? Couldn't find one on the web... don't wanna buy a whole new toe piece..
