That’s why we went to the one in Mount Prospect. I hate that bad door operator.

AMAZING VIDEO!

[@kno_01]

I remember watching a video showing this exact same elevator getting repaired

[@kno_01]

JUST REALIZED IT WAS THE PART 2 TO THIS LOL

[@Trainman2024]

Watch out for that elevator door!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2:22

[@QEElevators]

That high water alarm is for if the elevator pit filled with too much water

[@brianleeper5737]

7:51 that white pipe is electrical conduit, it probably has the electrical feed to the pump which is located elsewhere (probably on the bottom floor).

[@MrEngineer20051]

Pump is on top floor for this one.

@@MrEngineer20051 I searched some images of the TAC32 and the hydraulic line comes out the right side. In your video, you can see a pipe coming out the right side with an inline shut-off valve. 7:30 has the best view.

The door is randomly opening and closing because it thinks that the door is not latched properly with the interlock, but the door is open on the first floor so that’s why. The interlock circuit is one circuit it doesn’t know what door is open it just knows a door is open.

[@im_justin]

It's a top landing with an access key. There should be a wire to the controller for this specific door. So the controller would know.

[@hilo2-est3-elev]

@@im_justinNo, but I think Otis gen2s know what door is opened.

The Menards looks just like in Illinois.

[@MrEngineer20051]

Realistic press button

The elevator it’s working now

[@Trainman2024]

What the heck yeah i see that

[@bfrancioso]

Hydraulic machine room on 2nd floor? Extremely odd

[@im_justin]

Seen a "penthouse" hydro with the controller and tank one floor above directly over the shaft

[@mitchellarmstrong3759]

When the door opened and closed instantly a few times, I think the technician was doing something in the machine room.

[@MrEngineer20051]

There was nobody in the machine room except me. The mechanic was on the bottom floor doing something.

[@THECRAZYDUDE101]

@@MrEngineer20051 he might of been trying to fix it there

[@MrEngineer20051]

That's exactly what he was doing.

[@im_justin]

I'm pretty sure he's adding more tension to both doors and or replacing the cable for the door counterweight on both floors. Seems that once the car door let's go of the hall door, it's not strong enough to close the last inch
