To be honest...the price of shipping will kill you and make the field upgrade very close in price to shipping it in and getting it done there. It's very easy to install...2 screws and three sets of wires to plug in. Not to mention you have a backup - you don't have to send your old LHC back to Moog - you keep it. So, should your cat ever pee on your LHC - you have a spare.nicholas d. kent wrote:But it would make more sense, less risky and save money just to send my original LHC to the factory and have them upgrade the board on it and return it.

Silicone?
Hi,
I haven't installed the fix yet because of the instructed use of silicone, which is impossible to find (electronics grade, allegedly made by GE) Is this absolutley necessary? Am I crazy for continuing to ask around for this mythical product?

Go to an auto parts store and ask for RTV sealant - same product.yowzer wrote:Hi,

It's a good idea to use it as it prevents the connectors from coming loose when the Voyager is subjected to bumps and grinds when carting it around.

Moog really needs to have service centers in Europe for our friends across the pond- do they?

Doesn't sound all that simple then.
And buying the whole premium blue wheel sub-assembly all over again really is kind of wasteful.
