I knew had I had come to the right place! Thanks so much so far

To answer questions so far:

It was in transport mode actually, though I put it in that mode myself with the Foxwell somehow, I used INPA and turned all of it off as per another thread in here. No more transport mode.

The resister classification is listed as ‘L’ if I’m getting that right from the live data. It matches the letter code from the other two secotions.

Which direction are the arms supposed to point? They are pointing down I believe, but will double check.

Just the actuator was swapped, looks 5 minutes old. The PO said that he swapped it to fix the lights but it didn’t work. Are there any other wires going to the TC beyond the resister and actuator harnesses? I can make the actuator activate through live testing.

I agree that it could still be the actuator. It was a words story from the PO, he told me that he replaced the gears in the actuator and that they were all chewed up, but when I took the actuator off to have a look at it, it’s brand new and aftermarket… seems weird that the gears would need replacing on a new actuator, and there was zero evidence of tampering.
