Small XXL assembly issue with controller lid

So far assembly of my XXL has gone smoothly. One issue I’ve run into is the controller lid, it won’t fit with really cranking on the cables (which I haven’t done). Any thoughts? Not sure if the attached pic helps or not. Thanks!

Ouch.

My suggestion would be to open up the drag chain and re-lay the wiring (untwisting a bit if need be) to allow things to fit.

(I also shifted my drag chain bracket back a bit to make things line up more nicely, but don’t recommend that)

Probably a dumb question, but how does one open the drag chain? I don’t want to force it a break something. Should I remove the chain from the rail? Thanks Will.

I wouldn’t remove the chain.

If it hasn’t changed, the top is hinged on both sides and will pop off if you pry / pull at it — look at the underside — you should be able to see the attachment openings.

Got it. Opening the chain helped, but it was probably more user error, better cable management at the other end. Thanks will!
