| Sep 2, 2025 at 18:16 | comment | added | TJM | It's not clear to me that there wouldn't be any point to re-mounting it. For all I know, the probe could be the only component that is capable of sealing off the circular passageway out the top of the CM. If it's possible to close the top of the CM without reinstalling the probe, what component does this and how does it work? As far as I know there is nothing like a hinged door over the opening. | |
