I'm another Bill, but what I've done with good success (also on a Super Program that had the same problem) is just use a little dry graphite powder on the rewind shaft....no disassembly required. Haven't had any further problems in a year or two. Just be sure to be careful with the graphite, (it can be messy) and just work the rewind shaft quite a bit....
