We at PLR Electronics will repair and refurbish your damaged Tajima, swf and toyota circuit boards, down to the component level.

Why repair? Surely you can buy replacement circuit boards as easily as you do hoops?

Answer: They don't want you to replace the electronics!

Try to find one available... where can you get it?
You can purchase new from the distributor... for an unreasonable price. How many thousands of dollars? Three grand seems to be a popular value. What? Compared to the current price of a used machine?
Is this circuit board even available from official sources? Do they tell you, "tough luck, buddy"?
Has Tajima completely abandoned support of this product long ago? "Call Japan and complain."
Do they tell you to junk or trade-in your "worthless old machine" because they can sell you a real new money-maker for $50,000-$100,000?
Can you can ask your local mechanical guy if he or a buddy has an extra board just lying around? Sure... but loose boards "lying around" tend to have been pulled because they had problems in the first place. Or do you think your mechanic tends to buy and hoard brand new working boards?
Can you try to fix the problem yourself? Sure as well, but replacing random capactitors rarely does anything useful. And puts the board at risk for further damage, and worse yet you may be repairing the wrong board altogether... increasing the cost later.
Many parts are from overseas, and expensive (both in time and money) to get. Will you ask the local TV repair place to find these parts, on an unfamiliar board? Will you pay this price and still don't even know if the incoming parts will do anything? (Or if the parts even work; new-old stock means they've been sitting around for ten years after they've been made. Are they still in spec?

What a big hassle! Forget it!

I do not not know anything about FCS labs but i am sorry it didnt work out for you. The Brothers machines are difficult to repair due to custom chipsets. My best advice is to try to find a brother tech. that may have your board in fair condition, or buy a new/used known working board. Sorry i couldnt be of more help.
Good luck

Last time I contacted you about repair power board for SWF compact machine.

You guys charge $650.00 but original new part is $540.00.

How come repair price higher than original ?

Thank you.

I have never heard of a brand new SWF Power card for that price and our price is standard
due to the nature of the issues with swf power boards its not a simple fix. 90% of them blow up so severe they blow holes through the board, destroy traces and smoke vias. All of this takes a great amount of time and effort to reconstruct to a working board. Not to metion all the replacement parts that are normally destroyed. So if you can find that board for that price then by all means your getting a great deal. We also have a warranty of 1 year.
Thanks
