Even though you've obviously worked around the problem, have you thought of getting a new board via someone in the US? It's listed in the Celestron spare parts store for $208 - item NXW411
I've used the services of a US based re-shipper for items the supplier will not ship out of the US. Reliable and pretty cheap. I think the last item I got through him cost me a $5 fee on top of the postage fee to Australia.
If you're interested I can give you his contact details.
