After my second LM I tried both the Litter Robot and the Cat Genie, luckily I did not discard my LM boxes.
When my attempt to find a better litter box failed I went back to trying to repair the LM box. The customer service had told me about the "reset" trick and it worked for a while, before it quit altogether,
When I actuated the switch with my finger it worked, so I surmised that it was not being depressed by the cleaning bar. Since my switch had a little flat spring lever on it, I just adjusted it wit a pair of needle nose pliers. And it has been working fine for many weeks.
To solve the problem of waste on or behind the rake I installed a wire, about an inch, in front of the raking bar, I uses a welding rod but an old wire coat hanger should do. That was done just a few days ago and seems to work fine.
Soon I will get out my other old LM and repair it so I will have a spare!
