Has anyone with a PoolPilot had the screw projections disintegrate, causing the electronic panel to fall away making it impossible to use the panel manually? I can not adjust the output, test the unit or turn it on or off this way. I see no way to remedy it other than a new cover-and I do not know if that is available. Any one with a fix for this? It is still working on the program but I need to be able to make adjustments and can't now.I have contacted AutoPilot and am waiting for a response. In the mean time any suggestions are most welcome.
PoolSean, if you see this, I checked the link you sent on on a different forum and unfortunately mine is the model NOT involved in the recall.

We ended up drilling out where the screw stands were, using tygon tubing to create our own stands and screwing the electronic panel to the box that way. We added a silicone sealant to the screws on the exterior to keep water out. It works great.
