there is some little clips which hold the adjuster on, they or one has probably broken, happened too mine, they are extremely cheap to replace and only take a few mins.

which clip ? the clips which acts as spring on the adjuster (thermoclip) the problem exactly is that when the adjustment lever moves down it does not turn the wheel on the adjuster strut.

its ablout 8mm diameter and has like a star shape inside it, mine broke so it would turn the adjuster wheel.
it attaches the adjustment lever to the brake shoe. it sorta keeps it on on the pivot.
