Pulled the motor and decided to look into the gear box. When replacing the original motor i felt the gear in the gear box but never looked at it. The teeth i could feel felt fine

This time i looked inside at the gear and moved the arm back and forth. Sure enough i found two broken teeth at the end of the gear

LCI customer service assured me the gear never breaks. Well never say never. LCI sent me a new gear box with the first motor they sent me. Four nuts holds the gear box to the step. Quick and easy install

All is working great and ups just delievered another motor. So now i have an extra controller and two motors

I hope you sent LCI that picture of the broken gear teeth! Well done Jerry. Have a blast at Disneyland and give our best to Maria!!!
