Andrew,
Sounds like yours came back to life about the same time as mine did !
The sun did peek through for maybe half an hour here today just around mid day so that must
have been what did the trick
Temps were a bunch warmer than I have felt all day anyway for some reason.
I have a fairly tall step ladder so now I need to invest in one of those "wasp poles" to work an aerosol can remotely and lube it up
again with some silicone spray.. I have had good luck with the Mitsubishi service parts version it actually smells good and hangs in there well with
frequent water. The smells good parts not much concern outside but it's nice in a confined space
At any rate glad we are both showing wind again!
