Instruction for repairing your Airborne Cricket:
There is very little that can go wrong with your Airborne Clicker Number 470 ACME. However with several years extensive use or exposure to the wet/salty elements rusted clicker 'tongues' can loose their capability to return to the home position and therefore no longer 'click'. You can either try fixing the 'tongue' (see below) or if this does not work you can replace it.
You may also have an original cricket which has lost its 'tongue' due to corrosion or impact with the ground - so what better way to repair it than replacing the 'tongue'.
If you intend replacing a replica Paratrooper clicker with one of our Acme tongues you may find that it does not fit, this is because the replicas are not made to the same specification or sizes as the original Acme crickets - be aware!
We strongly recommend that if you have an original cricket with a 'tongue' that no longer works - leave it alone. You will devalue it significantly by replacing any part!
