Like I said, if it was a broken sensor they probably would have swapped it out and not said anything, no need to get someone worried over that.

Now it's getting torn down again. Either had a cam set a tooth off, or the gear installed incorrectly, or the gear "went bad" while sitting on a bench for a few hours.
