marinheiro 352 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 There's a Chinese guy in Te Atatu who is quite good at fixing that sort of gear, http://www.efrontier.co.nz/estore/index.php?currency=NZD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Black Panther 1,581 Posted August 3, 2021 Author Share Posted August 3, 2021 Thanks, I'll try that when I get back to whangaparaoa Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fish 0 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Yes, I've used him, very good and knowledgable. Unfortunately I wasn't able to actually work out what his name was. He was recommended to us by Richard Macalister at Kiwi Yachting when we had a problem with our nexus gear. He actually fixed our course controller... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I’ve used him to fix some old end-of-life Raymarine kit a few years ago. When L&B gave me the “too old to fix but we can sell you new” line. Most of the marine electronics folks will replace components at best but this guy isolates and fixes issues at circuit board level. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fogg 427 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 I think these are still his details but disclaimer: I haven’t contacted him for a few years so if these turn out to be incorrect don’t blame me! Name (I think): “York” 104 Roberts Road Te Atatu Auckland 09 835 2128 027 231 6288 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Black Panther 1,581 Posted August 3, 2021 Author Share Posted August 3, 2021 Got to be worth a try. Plan b was live without it until I get around to replacing the whole lot. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
