So I recently acquired a pretty decent looking pole position along with 4-5 sets of pcbs. Problem being is I was told they don't work. I was wondering if anyone on here would be willing or knows someone willing to at the very least get 1 pair of boards that works if not more. I've read an awful lot about these boards having chip upgrades, committing suicide, battery replacements, premarital sex, drug abuse, tax evasion, etc. All of the boards have had their batteries removed but I can see that a few have some slight acid damage to them. Please PM me or refer me in the right direction as I admittedly don't have the technical know-how to repair them myself.

Thanks,
-M
 
I'm not expecting a freebie on this if that's what it sounds like. I've seen guys on eBay for $175 but I'd rather given the money to someone here.
 
You can check with Dick Millikan. He was the go to guy for PP board repairs. I'm not sure if he still does them or not though... no idea.

He is/was a member here, so you can PM him if you want. His user name is "dickmillikan"

I've HEARD that he'll do X for 1 (4?) exchanges... if you send him something like 4 COMPLETE but non-working sets, he'd send you out a complete working. But I'm not sure if he still does that or not... no idea.
 
I think I can help. I fixed my pole position and it is working quite well. I don't see why i couldn't fix yours and run it in my machine to test it.
