My 400mm 2.8 IS decided it would not rotate (tripod mount) more than 45 or so degrees instead of 360 degrees. Is there a button I'm missing?

Is there a button I'm missing? unless it's under warranty is a big repair - I think about $300us, but don't quote me on that.

It is under warranty. Hate to ship it off, yuk. It moves about 45 degrees (should be 360)
