Mechanical IPD gear repair
Technician Notes
If your lenses won't move or the IPD slider is stuck, the internal gears have likely failed. We repair or replace the mechanical assembly to restore your visual comfort.
Diagnostic Symptoms
- IPD slider is stuck or hard to move
- Lenses move unevenly or only one side moves
- IPD value on screen doesn't match the physical slider position
- Grinding noise when trying to adjust the lenses
The RockIT Process
We disassemble the optical assembly to access the IPD gear train. We replace any stripped plastic gears with reinforced components and lubricate the mechanism for smooth operation.
Expert Prevention Advice
Don't force the IPD slider if it feels stuck. Regularly clean the area around the slider to prevent dust from entering the gears.
Homeowner Prevention Guide
To preserve your Rift CV1, be extremely gentle when adjusting the side straps to avoid snapping the internal audio ribbon cable. If you notice the cable twisting, disconnect it and lay it flat to 'reset' its shape. Store the external sensors in a stable position where they won't be bumped or knocked over.
