Motion Failure

Problem(s) Encountered:
Telescope motions failed. 
Solutions:
This is Eric submitting a report for last night. 
Telescope would not move in declination.  Had the 2.4m observer cycle the dec controller but the problem remained.
This morning, I found that the +24V in the TCS box to run the motor was not there.  Verified that the +24V was at the other end, in the RA drive enclosure.  This pointed to an issue with the pin/cable.  Pulled the wire for the signal at both ends and ran a singular wire from the dec controller TB to the connection in the TCS electronics.
Verified the presence of the +24 and verified telescope functionality. This is a robust enough (if also ugly) fix, but eventually a new connector will be pinned and installed.
