2.0 Background: Elevator was installed in 1989 and have had some updates/repairs made since then. Elevator services a basement floor, 1st (ground), 2nd and 3rd (top) floor. Control panel is displaying signs of heat damage and dip switches are stiff and brittle feeling when operated. Light bars have been upgraded, the cab interior lighting could be improved. Unit has had the power units serviced in 2017 but mostly the elevator is operating as installed. Our concerns are with travel cables, parts availability for now components and to provide a safe elevator for the passengers.
