Coppell TV Repair LLC offers REPAIR SERVICE for JUGS Jumior M1400 / M1500 control board.
We are offering this repair after successfully repairing several Jugs Junior machines for various issues, the most common being busted driver thyristors due to people trying to troubleshoot the machine.
Those are actually pretty well and tough build boards and we have found that most commonly it is the motors that give trouble and more specifically the brushes of the motor; not the windings, but the brushes, where carbon and other material builds up blocking the brush and leading to it blocking and not working properly, usually failing to push towards the rotor.
Before you send a board we highly recommend you test the motor for low resistance at the power leads when detached from the board. Finding an open circuit is a near certain indication of the above described problem, which requires the motor to be opened and cleaned rather than the control board tested for functionality.
When the control board is bad the machine is usually totally dead and the main fuse on the controller board is blown open. If you find that DO NOT replace the fuse - it will blow again without additional board service!
If the boards test fine there will be a $25 testing fee in addition to the return shipping cost.
If the motor is bad we can offer help mostly for local owners who could bring the whole machine or if you can take apart the machine and just mail the motor. This listing is NOT for the motor adjustment/repair service - please contact us if you believe that is what you need!
REQUIREMENTS FOR THE BOARD(S) SENT IN FOR SERVICE
The board(s) we receive must be physically intact and must have not been tampered with or serviced before.
The advertised flat rate for repair service is only valid when the above conditions are met.
Exceptions are possible and often applied for minor repair attempts, but we reserve the sole right to judge if and when we would consider a repair minor.
If we receive board(s) that fails the above conditions we will contact the sender and usually offer two options: 1) returning the board(s) for the sole cost of the return shipping; or 2) continuing the repair service at a higher cost in case of success.
It is also possible, depending on the condition of the board, to eliminate the second possibility and just flat our reject having to service the board.
Subject to situation and availability we may also recommend replacement of the board, again at the higher than advertised price for repair.
In all cases you will have the option to receive your own board(s) back for the sole cost of the return shipping.
