On the question of the sprung part that appears to have no function: The solenoid can potentially be 'bounced' or 'shocked' by hitting the safe so that the inertia of the solenoid plunger would cause it to actuate without electrical input. The small mass on one end of the unknown part would also react to bumps and taps on the safe, however it is heavier than the solenoid plunger and has a small leaver part on the opposite end which engages on the roll pin through the plunger (this is what the roll pin is for!). When the safe is 'bumped' forcefully the mass swings down and the smaller end holds the plunger out, effectively preventing the 'bump/shock' type attack.
Makes perfect sense...great explanation! One mystery solved...now if someone can explain the part that was causing the issue...?!?!? Thanks for watching and for leaving a comment!!
Use a high quality battery, I was having trouble with mine and was putting new generic 9 volt batteries and it was hit or miss. I started using Duracell Quantum and it works great again
The 6120 model is a motor driven lock that came out quite a few years earlier than this model which is the Z02. Good video though. The problem part is called a relocker to block proper operation if the lock is attacked. Unfortunately I dont currently have one to look at in the hopes of explaining why it was a problem other than possibly poor quality control. On the batteries I do know the 6120 model is very particular about batteries. Duracell or Energizer.

3:40 I believe that's a relocker plate.
