The most failure prone component was the solar cell. Can you describe the problem or issue?  |  IP: Logged Joel Whybrow Film Handler Posts: 15 From: Leigh-On-Sea, Essex, UK Registered: Feb 2007 posted 11-02-2014 08:44 AM                     There is no problem at the moment, I am looking to buy one from someone but he wanted to keep it as a spare unless I can find a source for him. I need the whole assembly (mine is missing) he only needs the PCB. It's the exact one pictured (dolby brand) and was attached to a Vic 5.  |  IP: Logged Sam D.

Everything else was made by the specific vendor.  |  IP: Logged Joel Whybrow Film Handler Posts: 15 From: Leigh-On-Sea, Essex, UK Registered: Feb 2007 posted 11-02-2014 10:26 AM                     Yeah I only really need a source for that PCB.  |  IP: Logged Steve Moore Expert Film Handler Posts: 211 From: Leeds, West Yorks, UK Registered: Apr 2008 posted 11-02-2014 12:17 PM                     Have you tried Sound associates in London; this is where i got mine from originally, though it is quite a long time ago.  |  IP: Logged
