Wires not connected after copy

Okay ...  So I copied a motor circuit several times in process of replicating the motor circuits.

 

However, during the process, some of the wires became disassociated with the its preceding counter parts.

 

Where ever there is a loop to jump a wire, the line between the loops (or end connection point) is no longer connected as the same wire. 

 

As a result, I get 3 different wire numbers.

 

NOTE: #560 (L3) is actually correct.

I can delete each segment and wire number, and reinsert a new wire.  However, I was hoping there was a better way to re-associate the wires as one wire.

Are you using the normal AutoCAD copy?
That won't work.
The "loop blocks" are connected to the internal "handle" of the wires that it's connected to.
When you use normal AutoCAD Copy, the handle for the wires change, but it won't update the links in the "loop blocks".

 

Try to use copy/paste circuit instead.

Is there away to re-associate the gaps, without deleting the wires and redrawing?
