When last I checked it was cheaper to buy a used electric motor and convert than to buy a new actuator.

As new, needs a wire brush and re-paint.

Alan, you beat me to the 'Has anyone got a spare...?' post :)

But, has anyone got a spare?

After years of the lights staying down well on my fail safe Plus 2, they started to pop up more and more regularly over the past few weeks.

Checked all the pipes early June. All OK.

So, Vacuum Cylinder out on the weekend.....(I last changed this 19 years ago).

I may have found the leak......

Thanks in advance,
Peter
