Default hatch actuator ?

Mine stop working fortunately it was not down all the way. So I have been on the hunt.... There seems to be options out there. I really don't feel like spending $400 to replace the painted one (that worked fine for 15 years) with a shiny polished one. It's a 24 inch stoke. Wondering what ones you guys are using and how they are working for you.

What brand is current actuator? Couple of the companies will rebuild your unit IIRC the rebuild was about 60% of replacement cost. It's been a few years but think it was Lenco that did mine.

The motor is fine... The ram just seems to keep getting stuck
I'm not sure what brand mine was... It was painted over ... Any Donzi guys know what they used?

Take it apart? Just a motor, clutch, couple gears and a screw.

Bring your current actuator to your closest Warner Linear distributor and have them identify it. I work for Applied Industrial Technologies ( a large Warner distributor, there should be one close to you) and I've gotten a couple of my buddies these for their boats. Should save you some money. Good luck! http://www.warnerlinear.com/K2x.asp

Got granite counter tops? They're usually flat. Roll it and see?

Good luck!
