Sheldon Hammond are the dealers...kitchen wares with your Astro gear..sigh! That is depressing.
Sorry to hear about the mount. It looks as if the RA/DEC motors are eeprom controlled and the DEC has..fried.
If it is indeed an eeprom & you can get the bin file for the programming and get replacements chips, then it is do-able. It's a little hard to tell, you have to peel up the IC's sticker to read their part number to correctly ident the IC.
Of course a letter to Celestron outlining that the cost to repair locally is a "prohibitive" disgrace may/not help.
Edit;
Could be a microcontroller IC?
