Sounds like a couple of the issues that developed shortly after the injection burn out of Earth orbit have been addressed and basically taken care of. There was a cooling issue (actually, got colder than expected in Earth orbit) which put it into ‘safe mode’, which has apparently been taken care of. The communications issue has also apparently been rectified as well.
