I finally figured out how to get to the reel. I had to unscrew the skirting from underneath and fold it out enough to get my head up into see the reel. The worst part was cutting the caulking at the back corner and unscrewing the plastic corner molding. (Then reattaching /caulking). The chain cover has like 10 nuts you have to basically loosen blindly. Then the chain has to be placed on the motor sprocket and put on the reel sprocket as much as possible. A push of the power button rolled the chain back on the sprocket nicely. I didn’t put all the nuts back on the cover in case of future problems. Total repair time was about 45 minutes.
