I had removed the QR to grease it and re-installed it wrong.

Lot's of problems have simple solutions (= Occam's Razor). Maybe your magnet got whacked and it's not where it used to be.
It shouldn't matter, because an identical cyclocomp works fine when placed in that same cradle. If I had done some magnet-related problem, it would have shown with the other (identical) cyclecomp as well, but didn't. So, it's not the magnet-reed relay-cable-cradle assembly at fault (= Occam's Razor).



But regardless, in my first post (just to satisfy your curiosity) I state that yes, I have dicked with the magnet, too:

I did that because it was the most obvious thing to do, and the simplest thng to try.
