[QUOTE="Emerald Zapper, post: 575171, member: 294952"] I bought a diseqc dish motor under a year ago, from a dealer in the USA on Ebay, now its broken, but it will probably cost me an arm and a leg posting it back and to cover the postage to have it sent back to me, as I unfortunetely violated the warrenty by opening the unit. What I really want to find out is whether it is possible to get it fixed fairly cheaply or could I do it myself. The problem with the unit is the LNB socket on the underside of the motor housing, its come away completely from the coax cable inside the unit, which is itself connected to a small curcuit board inside the housing. Is it possible to take out the circuit board (I didn't want to force it out and possibly break it further) and solder the wire back to the socket which is mounted on the outside of the unit. Any help would be greatly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
