Hi,

My Major Havoc conversion was working fine, but then the spinner started cutting out today. Now I can only move very slowly to the left.

I'm guessing I need to replace the black opto switch on the optic board... is there any source for these?

I may be wrong but Im sure Riptor sells repro opto boards. He may also sell individual parts.
 
Well I found another solution that I thought I would share. I swapped the opto board with one from my Championship Sprint, which says Revision G on it.

The Tempest one (Revision C) seems to work just fine in Championship Sprint, and the Rev G one works better with MH than the Rev C one did before it stopped working.

Why is MH so sensitive when it comes to the opto board? I went through 3 Tempest opto boards before I found one that worked at all.
