Just passing on an address where one guy in the Dublin Motorcycle Touring Club got his aged Zumo 550 repaired for reasonable money...

Interesting. Thanks. Did he send the unit over or was he over there at the time?

He posted it over, €9.00 airmail, took 3 days. Communication was by email. The man there in PALMDR is "Chris Short, President".

They replaced digitiser, rubber button, internal back-up battery for USD78.

Repaired a corroded contact which was making the charging unreliable - maybe this was arcing slightly for a while. Repair by soldering - USD14.50 or replace back housing USD59.90. Not sure which he got done.
