Yes, the handle on the bay door stuck in the pulled open position when I went to fill up a day or so after leaving Newell. On this type of bay door the handle is really just used to activate the electric latch. There is no mechanical connection to the latches. I was warned by Kris Jones to just use it like its a button, and don't hold on to it. The solenoid will burn out, he said. This handle was never stiff before. I used dry lube spray to loosen it. i also pushed the bay door lock button (which removes the power from the bay doors) to no avail.....the solenods were dead.

Just glad that I can "enjoy" this part of it by recollection, and with a bourbon. Next comes further enjoyment when I get to Newell. All it takes is money....
