@Alex if i may:

In other words
@annemarievdh set the meter to were it beeps .. touch the red on the spring and the black one the outer part of the 510, it should beep

Should I do this with the collapsed spring?

 

[kimbo]

yes will be the same .. but leave the battery out

 

[annemarievdh]

Nope, no beep

 

[kimbo]

OK .. think the problem is under your spring .. will see when you fit the new one

 

[Alex]

Now remove the screw from the spring and try again from the screw hole.

The screw is the point of contact, not the spring, the screw head needs to make good contact with the body of the reo.

Cant get it to budge

 

[Alex]

Stick a knife edge under the spring and bend it up a little to help moving the spring. Then you can unscrew the spring

[annemarievdh]

Nope, still no beep and if I put the RM2 and the battery on, still nothing

 

[annemarievdh]

Ok wait, I took the RM2 of, and put it back on

And

ITS WORKING!!!!

Thank you gys!!!!

I wonder if the conection between the 510 body and reo is the problem . If you have an old atty screw it into the 510 and give it a tap or two with something like a large screwdriver. Then do the test again from @Alex . Give it a good wack maby the 510 is not seating nicely

Thank you gys!!!!

Then it is definitely the 510 that is not making a good conection with the reo body . This happened to me once also
