There's a cable harness that attached to the

sections. One goes down to the stand and plugs into that module you've
found. This is the power supply for the solenoid in the reader itself.
One little branch connects to the leaf contact switch on top of the
transmiter shafter in the typing unit. And the 3rd branch plugs into the
back of the call control unit. It's that last one I want you to unplug.
Right, this is what I eventually figured out. I didn't realize the reader
cables banched off to different points. Once I found that and unplugged
the cable to the call control unit the problem went away, isolating the
problem to the reader. I then removed the reader and examined it more
closely and saw the tine out of place. How it got that way is beyond me.
