Updated through online information from John J. Miller. -- In early 2014, the casework was showing signs of failure. There were stress cracks in the organ's structural beams and many glue joints were splitting. The sagging of windchest supports caused frequent ciphers. In 2014, the decision was made to remove the Jaeckel organ and purchase a new instrument. 95% of the Jaeckel pipework would be used in the new instrument. JL Nordlie of Sioux Falls, SD was contracted for the removal of the Jaeckel organ and building of the new instrument. By June of 2015, the Jaeckel organ had been removed. The Nordlie instrument is scheduled for a 2016 installation. This information from personal inspection and from a December 2014 issue of the Cathedral Connection magazine.

The instrument had been plagued with mechanical and structural problems since it was built, and the Cathedral parish decided to have a new instrument built by Nordlie using the pipework from the Jaeckel organ.
