I had the dreaded "spinning like a crazed hamster" effect on this
Winder 1.<

Every OM winder I've seen lately had some kind of problem. One was identical to yours - spinning crazily whether the trigger button was pressed or not. Don't know what the common problem is but I suspect it's fairly simple. The mechanism itself is probably a simple one. My guess is that there's a sear-type mechanism that's worn or broken. I'd hate to think proper operation depended on grease weight.

Maybe John H. can shed some light on this.
