Hi Andy,
Would you be willing to share who did the work and an approximate amount spent to get your BOL working? Someone else may have one that needs repair, if they can't do it themselves.

I don't have one, but it might save someone else a lot of trouble?
Thanks.

I don't know who repaired Andrew's set, but West-Tech Services now repairs the 1941 Beam of Light changers.
