I had to replace a circuit board under the altitude cover due to a faulty connection with the hand controller cable. It had an intermittent fault from new that caused the controller to reset if it was moved from the holder. I purchased my telescope from Sirius Optics and Ron took care of the warranty claim. When the part arrived, I returned with the scope and he replaced the circuit board on the shop floor and we then tested the scope to make sure all was well. Great service as usual from Ron.

So, from my experience replacement boards can be obtained if there is little hope of fixing the existing unit. It should be a simple matter of contacting Sirius Optics (or another Sky Watcher dealer) and ordering the correct board.
