Default 3pk display problem

Hi again
I just picked up a use 3pk and the guy didn't tell me it had the display problem
Owell,, my bad fo buying used

anyway,, I searched and saw others with the same problem
Is is possible this is a recall item or will I have to pay to have it fixed?
If so how much about will it cost?

Th radio works fine just the screen cuts out every once in a while, So far still completely useable.
I just need to reboot to get the screen back

By the way,,, I had a similar problem with a Hitec radio and they fixed it FOC
any chance Futaba will step up?

Default RE: 3pk display problem

Futaba warranties items purchased by the original owner. As you purchased this used, no, it would not be covered under warranty.

Also there is not a "recall" on the 3PK as this is not a recurrent problem with these.

The costs of replacing the LCD display would be approximately $70.00 including labor and shipping.

I hope you find this information helpful. You can also reach our Futaba support technical team at 217-398-8970, or via fax at 217-398-7721.

Sincerely,
Krysta
Lead Futaba Customer Service and Programming Technician

Krysta,
Never hurts to ask, right?

$70 is very reasonable.
Thanks for the info,,, I'll send it in once the race season ends

Futaba Rocks!!!
