If you mean the type that has a knob below dash it's rare to find one still working. They are meant to work on a hydraulic system via the plastic tubes.
Come to think of it this must be one topic that I've never heard of a zoner trying to repair. Anyone done this?
They can still be adjuster manually at the lights.

Just read the thread and the repair was unsuccessful, and the rest is re an electric conversion.

My point in giving the above link is so you can see that repairs are not possible to the original system without either buying new, or converting to electric.
