I have an intermittent problem with my US Tower HDX-572MDPL
It is 17 years old.
Sometimes when I push the switch on the tower box to up position, after the 5 
sec delay I hear a click from inside the electrical box and the motor will not 
start.
Other times it works normally.
Problem is only in up direction.
I also have the remote control box inside shack,  but never use it.
I am thinking up limit switch or up relay inside tower electrical box.
I know the limit switch is 802T-AP but does anyone know the part number for the 
lever?
It was rusting and 3 years ago the switch and lever were sprayed with 
galvanizing spray.
So I’m thinking to replace the lever when replacing the limit switch.
Do the relays need to be replaced after 17 years or just cleaned?
Does anyone know the part numbers for the relays?
W2GD will be here in spring or summer to work on the tower, but I want to have 
all replacement parts ready.
