HWH circuit board

I need to replace a circuit board on our 2001 U320.  Does anyone know where I can find one in good working order?  HWH told me 6-8 weeks to send mine in for repair. Box # AP18508 and the number on the board ia P13190. Thanks.

Try calling Northwest RV.  They are often able to come up with hard to find parts.

This may not help you, but it may be worth the time to call and ask their opinion on your board.  They are near Atlanta, GA.

I used these guys to repair an ABS module for my Jeep.  They use FedEx for shipping both ways and provided updates all the time.
They repair all kinds of circuit boards for cars, appliances, industrial applications etc.

They get high marks from me.

Good luck.

If you have the time best bet is to pull the box and send it to HWH..  fairly easy to remove, I did it about 3 years ago.. took them 4 weeks to get it back to me..  marked wires, pulled box and took it to a ups store and had them pack and 2 day ship it.. I was under the gun cause I had a trip planned in about 7 weeks..

I was waiting for a call back and decided to just ship it to them. It was there and repaired before I got the call back. The tech that called me did give me some useful trouble shooting information for the future which has helped me.

Same with me. Also if you can get them to supply a shipping label they have a much better rate. The repair cost and return shipping was almost the same as my shipping cost to get it to them. They told me they could if I ever needed to get repaired again.

HWH... the linchpin of almost all Foretravels. One of the big reasons I bought my ORED was that it'll still work if HWH quits supporting customers directly.

At the last Grandvention in had asked Lyle if FOT was going to go to a different vendor.  His answer was No.  He also said, If I remember correctly,  that they did not feel the others were any better.
