Default QTEC Electric Cutout Broken?

I have had my QTEC electric cutout on my car for probably 5 months now and I open and close it about 2 times a day. This past weekend I noticed that it wasn't working. So I just reached under there last night and found that the part where the motor and wire comes together was loose. This is the area at the end of the black weather boot. I could rotate it a little bit and pull it a bit out, but not completely off. I am going to take it off the car tonight, but just wondering if anyone has had this problem before and can offer suggestions as to how to fix it? If I can't fix it, do you think QTP will fix it? Thanks!

Or should I ditch the cutout and just go GMMG?

Isn't there some kind of warranty on it? Might just be some loose screws...

The motor fell off a few of mine. I miss them though. I sold two that the motor fell off a few months ago because I was going to an x pipe and true duals. After the muffler shop went up on the quote I ordered another had it for about 3 months and guess what the motor fell off while driving down the road. I have both pieces so barry do you think they would warranty it since I have been such a good customer. I just leave it open now. I cant afford another one for some time.

I have receipts that can account for 2 of the 4 I had. I purchased from another member on ls1 or here I dont remember two of them I do have the paypal invoice though.

Good luck to ya dude.
