Sherlock Holmes vs. Jack the Ripper Hints
How can I get that wheel replaced?
1 of 11: First, you'll need to remove the broken one.
2 of 11: However, that can't be done without lifting the door up somewhat to relieve the pressure on the wheel.
3 of 11: Look around the top of the door for options.
4 of 11: Notice that there's an interactive wheel at the top left corner of the door, and an interactive hanging hook a bit to the left of that.
5 of 11: Click on the hook to get it to slide over near the wheel. Do you see what you need to do now?
6 of 11: You need to remove the wheel and attach the hook in its place.
7 of 11: You'll have to use a tool to remove the wheel.
8 of 11: The ever-handy pocketknife will suffice, so select it in inventory and click on the wheel to take it.
9 of 11: Then click on the spot where the wheel was to get the hook put in place, which raises the door slightly.
10 of 11: Now look down and remove the broken wheel the same way you did the other wheel -- with the pocketknife.
11 of 11: Select the wheel you got from the top of the door in inventory, then click on the broken wheel's spot to replace it.
