If it's appears to be a mechanical issue, it may be that this item in the column has broken.

You can have the credit for it, maybe even extra credit. I provided direction for the part which your entry lacked.

Don't mind me questioning your moves, just trying to help verify, that is all.

In that regard what did you find wrong to warrant replacement?
