Rod, back me up on this.... I'm going to guess that your machine was manufactured around the end of 2005. Which means you have one of the earliest Amaya XT's. To add to what Rod said about what techs must go through to be "Certified".... Most Amaya owners don't want to be bothered with all of the changes that your trimming system has gone through over the last three years. They would just want it to work right. However, to make sure it's fixed correctly, and to last as long as possible, you will want to know that someone has taken into consideration all of the latest upgrades and apply what's necessary to do the repair correctly. Without seeing the machine, I'm guessing your problem is with one or more of a: sensor motor trimmer assembly cable housing cable block bracket main board software etc... This may be why you haven't found a definite source for this issue in the archives. I respect your willingness to fix it yourself. If I could give you free help over the Internet, I would. From what you've described, I'm guessing it's time to replace a part or two.
