Ergoline PC Rebuild

Is anyone in the USA rebuilding Ergoline I/O main PC boards? At $925 a pop it's getting expensive.

The same with the timers. It's a shame to have to pay $300 for a new one, and throw these in the landfill. I'm sure it's just a simple capacitor, or dinky component that's burnt out.

Re: Ergoline PC Rebuild

I took 2 boards to my tv repair shop and they soldered in larger resistors in the burnt area. $120 repair each. Scared to try them though!!! :( out of 650 ultra classic. They seemed confident...not me.

Re: Ergoline PC Rebuild

It just makes no sense to string three 18K surface mount micro resistors to get 54K. Every one I've seen shows overheating, really bad design or really expensive fuse.

Re: Ergoline PC Rebuild

Customers are really getting tired of these outrageous prices ( Suntan supply wanted
$180.00 for a $20.00 sticker ) Look for a black market on these boards within weeks.
I know of two people close to duplicating several JK boards.
