FLI Filter Wheel

Hi.
I have a 9 position 50mm round filter wheel that is accepting power, but no USB connection. Seems like that tiny little USB board in the FW has given up.

So with FLI and ANDOR wrapped up, is there any resource out there that you may know of where I can get a replacement board?

Its a really good FW and it would be easy to replace it with a QHY or a ZWO FW as the mounting surface on the Apogee Camera is threaded. But I would like to get this back working if possible.

thanks
Martin

Martin...sorry to hear the CFW has problems...but are you saying FLI and Andor have ceased trading? That would be sad.
