Celestron 8i GPS Hand Controller
Hi all.
I'm chasing the hand controller for a Celestron Nexstar 8i SCT with the GPS unit setup options in the settings of the hand controller as I use the GPS unit for quick setup on my scope but the screens LCD text has faded or does not show at all. The red backlight is fine and the 8i still operates as it should with all keys but I can no longer read the text. This seems to be a common problem. I have also cleaned the contacts on the ribbon cable which hasn't helped.
I've uploaded a photo of the hand controller so if you have a spare one laying around that you know is fine, please PM me. Even if you have a non working controller that does not respond to key presses I would be interested in that as long as the LCD screen text does show and doesn't have this common fault, cheers.
Regards Dave.
