Hi
Anyone know what controls the self park function? Mine used to work now it's
stopped. I know the connection block is a bit crap to it.

Cheers :)

Many thanks :)

I'll investigate. Do you know if that part is available on it's own or would
it be new motor assembly?

Cheers

It's a long time since I changed one of those, but I seem to recall
the park switch was incorporated into the connector on the motor. They
were available as a separate item.

Cheers,

Colin.

Thanks very much! I've fixed it for now the connections were corroded so I
cleaned them up.
It was controlled by a plastic plunger working on a cam. Bad connection
meant it didn't park.
Roll on a dry summer! :)
