Default Anyone ever had an Aeroforce gauge quit?

I'm running the dual setup and the other night one of them quit working. It won't power on at all. Anyone ever had a problem like this? I'm outside of their 1 year warranty by about 4 months...really hoping that I don't have to shell out another $250 for a new gauge

call them, they've had decent customer service to others in the past.

Mine would go blank, still have power but no display.
I called them and they just asked when i bought it. It was about 6 months ago (@ the time).
They gave me an RMA # and an adress and said we'll be looking for it!
A week or two later it showed back up with a modified wiring harness.
The problem is that our trucks have a "noisy" electrical system that was interfering with the unit. They installed filters which cured the issue!

Mine went blank one day while backing up my boat, when I looked back at the dash I had warning lights, stereo stopped working, service lights on etc. I unplugged the gage and everything went back to normal. Tried it again and same deal. They have a new web tech section and I posted on there, they said if it was still under warr. they would replace it, if not to send it in and they would reprogram it with the latest software. ( don't know what that will cost )

I too have to give them a call and send it in. I need it now to use for an A/F gage.....

Freaked me out when the dash started going crazy..

D~

I sent them an email a couple days ago and got a response yesterday, they said to send it in and they would check it out and let me know if they were going to warranty it or not.
