But when we try to open it up, every motor is running but its unable to lift the mirror doors up for some reason. 2251 - We are waiting for like 10 minutes for the motors to cool down a bit and check if its still not running and looks safe and then we'll start closing down 2315 - Started close down procedure =====ToDo===== =====Notes===== =====Weather===== | Time | Temp | Humidity | | 1800 | 62 | 35 | | 1900 | 60 | 37 | =====Data===== {{tag>[picsarr]}}
