Hey everyone,

Duo here live from the Turbo Express hospital. I got a system for a member that is in need of a new controller PCB (their system had corrosion). If you have a system that is beyond cap fix, etc will you please drop me a PM? Would be great so I can get this system back on it's feet. I can specify exactly what part is needed so just drop me a line or reply to this thread. Keep in mind this is a call out for Turbo Express systems that are parts.

I don't have any spare parts, but just thinking... How bad is the corrosion? Could you post a pic?

Did it eat through some of the traces or something? I'm wondering if you could install some jumpers to repair it as finding a replacement board will probably be very difficult.

the corrosion was pretty bad and ate through not only the rubber Run / Select buttons, but ate away the traces on the PCB. The Run button was toast. However, I found a solution, and will show some pics later after I show the owner.

So this problem fixed, going to close the thread but if anyone has spare parts for Turbo Express drop me a PM (could use for future reference)?
