Celestron CGE mount

For sale Celestron CGE mount , brought from the forum a few weeks back, unfortunately the DEC axis is faulty, there seems to be an issue with the home position switch that prevents DEC axis movement for manual and auto alignment . Might be a easy fix for those that are tech savy/tinkerers which Im not . Comes with the tripod and one counterweight and I brought the Gary Bennet cable upgrade separately .

$ 500 pick up Perth
