Jim, is the actuator a difficult maintenance item? I can have it apart and take a look see if it aint too complex. The CC was working again yesterday, so am thinking there is something intermittent either in the harness connections, or in the actuator or amp box.
Have one month left in Mexico, then a few weeks in Yuma then a mad dash to home. Sure be nice to have it sorted.

I wouldn't put another amp box in it unless/until I made sure I had a good actuator motor. I have used gdl-online.com for overhaul with great success.
