Posting this on the remote possibility that there's someone else who is as much a lily-livered chicken-sh.t as I. Doubtful, but one never knows ...
One of my CCs was anemic. I suspected the atty wasn't making good contact, but as I am among the least mechanical people on planet earth, I wasn't sure - and anyway, fiddling with mechanical things ranks right up there with snakes.
Yesterday, i mustered my courage and found @Rayonati Sloth's video on cleaning CCs and seating attys. At 7:02, he disassembles and reassembles the 510/delrin/contact/nut thingier, remember? Maybe. Maybe. Yup! It isn't hard, at all! Took me two tries, adjusted the 510 screw, lined up the atty, and Poof! Got it!
Last night I experienced CC7068 (now called "Lily") in all her vaporicious glory. Nirvana - with a small serving of humble pie. Yay!
Thank you, Sloth. Thank you, Corey.

Happiness is a mug of strong coffee and sweet cinnamon danish in a CC![]()
