A friend of mine has one which is faulty (skips/jumps in record and play)
and I have just talked to HHB in the UK about it. Apparently, the leaking
capacitor is a common fault in older units. The tech said it usually
corrodes the PCB and replacement of the board is necessary. He also says
that you need to recalibrate the new PCB with the existing mech (or vice
versa). HHB in the UK charge £105 + 17.5% tax to replace the board and
recalibrate. The tech also said that the laser assembly very rarely wears
out.
