I cleaned the resistance coil and contact as my ohm meter showed no circuit as contact passed about 3/4 of movement up the coil. After dressing coil Ohm mtr shows consistent...

    I need to do the left side it's not as bad but is pretty rotted in places. The upper especially. Would be so much better to use 1 piece. Where can I get panels?
