I found that time to time a get a cold solder on wires that connect
the shaft encoder. The shaft encoder stop responding and I must do a
gentle «tap» on it if I want to use it. I also found that the green
wires used to connect the shaft encoder to the board are quite hard
and not flexible for the lenght we use provide.
I now use ribbon cable and a little bit of heat shrink to prevent any
short circuit. with the control panel.
It is not a big deal, but I really think it is now more flexible and
give less stress on the wires when you need to dessamble all the
front panel.
