Default Servo issues

So i took apart my Hitec 7955-TG servo to change the case on it. One of the tabs broke off. So I put it all back together and it works fine but the servo only turns about 1/3 of what it used to. What did I do wrong? Thanks.

Did you make sure to align all of the gears properly? This could be a possibility..it sounds that you may have not put the gears and pin in correctly..try redoing the gears and go from there.

There is an internal stop that you don't have lined up properly.

Is the stop on the gear that connects to the steering arm? How would I go about lining that up correctly?

What I do is, plug the servo in. Adjust the potentiometer until the gears stop spinning. Then assemble the gears if they aren't already. The last gear, the output gear has a pin on the underside.
Have it centered. Equal distance to the stops on either side. Assemble.
