The razor head comes loose from the two arms
RE: Braun Syncro 7526 Electric Shaver
The razor head, which holds the comb & cutter, comes loose from the two arms that extend from the "motor/battery section" of the razor. The two spring-loaded pins on both sides of the razor head pop out. I may have lost one of the two steel clips inside the razor head, into which the two arms lock.
Is there any way this can be repaired. If so, how or where?
If not, do you know whether and where I might purchase a replacement razor head?

I had a similar problem where one of the side covers popped off. I was able to reattach it, by carefully aligning the spring and pushing back into place. If you've lost the pin, you're out of luck. Braun does not make these kinds of parts available for user servicing, unfortunately.
However, the 7000 series models are all compatible with each other in terms of motor, battery, and razor head armature. You could try locating a moderately used example on the cheap (maybe less than $20) and then cannibalize it for the parts you need.
Do NOT send it off to Braun for servicing, as you will be charged much more than the shaver is worth. If it comes to that, you're better off just going with an 8000 series shaver.
