What has been your Experience with Electronics Repair Costs?
My Northstar M121 has died and it looks like the display. I got a RMA and then I thought maybe I should ask about the repair costs. (Thanks to others who have posted their experiences)
The support center told me for 150$ they will bench test it and for a flat fee of $799 they will fix any thing that is wrong with it and give me a 90 day warranty.
I have been going back and forth on this and I think I have decided to get it repaired. I have several thousand dollars invested with the radar, maps, PC software, GPS, transducer, fuel sensors. I could upgrade for $3180 and all my old stuff would still work I think. Still checking into it.
Have you guys dealt with Garmin, Raymarine and others? Have you experienced a flat rate repair fee? If it really is a display then it would seem about right but if it was just the key pad or some power component then may be not so much. It's 3 months out of warranty.:smt021
