I've come across a few at the wreckers lately, don't pay more than $220, and $200 should be closer to the mark. Good luck.

I and many others have dealt with this guy.

Reliable, quick turnaround for either repair to your unit or exchange unit.

Highly recommended.

As ron west suggested as it is a permanent fix. Mine and many many others have had them fixed by him with no more trouble. If you go to a wreckers then it'll cost you more and will only happen sooner rather than later.

He posts to all states, but I picked up/dropped off in a 1 day turnaround and so far mine is still working fine.

Highly recommended.
