Ah, that makes definitely sense then. Thanks again!

I'm still experiencing the same issue, but I think this is at least pointing me in the right direction. I pulled everything back out and cleaned it a couple more times. To my naked eye at least, it looks just about as clean as it's probably gonna get. At the very least, I can't visibly tell where it might be shorting now.

Now I'm wondering if the issue might be from some of the fins being bent? Some of the fins certainly appear to be touching the back plates as I turn it back and forth, although it sure is hard to tell just from sight alone.

Feel free to let me know what you think. I'll attach a few pics here. Tried my best to get them as clear as I could, but I'm sure you know how it is. Let me know if you have any issues viewing them.

Obviously, I'm gonna need to do more research before I jump straight to trying to bend them back into shape by hand.
