Here is what mine looks like inside. Very easy to get into. I do carry my original manual jack on every trip, just in case.
Had my UltraFab jack lockup too. The pin block, under the allen head screw, had sheared. If the jack is driven all the way up, or all the way down, the travel will stop, and the motor will continue to push until the pin shears, as it's designed to do.
Poor design by the manufacturer. Should have limit switches so it can never go beyond the limits.
The replacement pin was hard to find on their website. I contacted customer service, and they sent me this link:

I bought 2 of them. Now I have a spare, just in case. I'm now very careful not to drive the jack too far either direction. No further issues two years later.
