Both tails are involved; one has the row connections and the other has the
column connections. The panels were made out of some material other than
real Mylar, which turned out to harden and crack over the years. The
solution is to replace the panels. I sell replacement panels, which many
people on this list have installed. Contact me off list, and give me your
address for a quote. You can see the replacement process here:
