JBox - fix or replace
« on: October 05, 2012, 04:23:32 AM »
Now that I am fighting to keep mu bike the old _ no power till tap - is starting with the jbox. Searching here I see that it is far from a new issue. What is the bast way to deal with this? I have seen someone seeling the new box but just cannot seem to find the link.

If you're electronically oriented, you can take it apart and replace the relays, $4.74 on sale!

I have repaired three so far.  All three just needed a solder joint redone.  Give them a good visual inspection.  Murph's sells relays also.
Shiny side up, rubber down.
