My 280SE handbrake handle does not return back flush to the dash when the brake is disengaged. I removed the trim revealing the mech and if the handle is gently pulled in and out it returns to its correct position and extinguishes the dash light. It seems the lever on the ratchet does not lift clear when the handle is twisted round but I can't see what the problem is.

Has anyone had a similar problem and is there a simple fix?
