Which skill or expertise would you use for disabling mechanisms such as complex traps or other mechanical devices?
 
Depends on how you do it and what kind of machine it is.
Maybe fingerfärdighet if its poking around in a trap. could be krigföring if its a war machine.
Låsdyrkning if its a mechanical device. If it's a snare or something similar used for hunting then Jakt & Fiske could be used.

I think pulling a lever to disable a trap doesnt really need the player to roll. If they explain how they disable the trap then that might be enough. I would only have them roll if it's a mechanism they don't understand and they try disabling it.

Yes, I am thinking of complex mechanisms, involving gears connected to pressure plates, small traps connected to a lock etc. I was considering going for pick locks (Låsdyrkning) but then I considered that given that Eon has a lot of niche expertises and crafts, "Disabling devices" could be one of them.

Alternatively I could use the craft Mechanic (Mekaniker).
 
There's an Expertise called "Fällor" that would work brilliantly. If not, Mechanic.
