NEQ6 parts replacement

[iksose7]

Evening folks. I've not been able to image the past few months due to work but mainly because my NEQ6 packed up! And now that summer is around the corner and clear nights are inbound i want to get back out there. So i need a new motherboard it would seem. Looking around i can only find motherboards for the EQ6. Does anybody know if its the same as the one used in the NEQ6? I think the only difference in the mounts is the motors, but i thought i would post here hoping someone can confirm that they run with the same motherboards before i place an order. Cheers!

The mcb is the same for the EQ6 and NEQ6.

Are there not different version numbers? Just asking, as I was under that impression.

There are probably different revisions of the board, but the board will work in either mount.

Mine was replaced on a brand new NEQ6  as it blew on the first use. Just my luck! Then worked without fail for several years. Great value for the money.
