Default ***Koni SA adjustment help***

So I'm putting my kmember and front suspension for my new set up. Since I got new front Bmr springs (switched from Eibach prokit) but when I started to set it up I went full + hard and take it down from there. So I started turning it with an Allen wrench and it would just turn and turn I think I counted like 24 turns with the Allen wrench so I stopped. Is it busted? Or is there more clicks?

Thanks

I forgot how many clicks there were but it should eventually stop. If it keeps on going on, I'm pretty sure it means it's no good.

Did you try the other shock?

Keep turning it from the adjustment window until it stops, it will stop eventually.

I didn't because I had to come to work but I'll try that.
Anyone else?

Yes, you have a broken adjuster. One of mine did that so I had to send it in to Koni for fixing/replacement.

Also, there are only 12 sweeps of adjustment on the yellow sport 1139 Koni shock.
