Sorry for topic necromancy but what i forgot to mention i added 2x 1L full bush (instead of the axle connector) to prevent axle slipping. By the way, there is also another minor issue with this set - the front and rear steering never allign straight, probably not possible to fix easily due to gear slack (rear is geared down).

Hello, I need to replace cable for my RCX light sensor because its insulation is rotten, anyone has experience in opening it (where to pry, what tools to use) ? Seems that it's held by 6 blue tabs.

Hello, does anyone have a pdf of this manual (not the set building manual, but book for the control center itself) ? BrickLink - Book 4100204 : LEGO User Guide for Technic Control Center II 8485 [Informational Book:Technic] - BrickLink Reference Catalog

Of course it's in place and not twisted. The axle/pin connector is rubbing with it's ege agains the tabs of the 2l axle connector, when you rotate the wheel you can "feal" it because there are 4 spaces between the tabs.

Yep, its build according to instructions:

Hello, recently I got my hands on this classic set :) Unfortunately I found some issues with the build. I want to ask if you guys also had same issues or I did something wrong: 1) High friction in drivetrain caused by suspension stoppers ( Axle and Pin Connector Perpendicular ) rubbing against axle connectors ( Technic, Axle Connector 2L ) --> this was easy to fix, I just put 5L axles (which were not available on release of set) instead of 2 & 3 connected together: 2) Crown 24tooth gears driving the steering wheel not working smooth, well these gears in this configuration don’t work smooth, so no idea how could i do anything wrong --> also easy fix just replace with regular z24 (no idea why LEGO used crown gear here): 3) Rear axle not entirely straight, its less noticeable then on my drawing, but the wheels are not parallel, they aim a little to the front middle, probably caused by higher placement of the steering rack to reach z8 instead of z16 in front:
