jonesy 111 Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 I accidently knelt on my locator box whilst back filling at the end of the season and now half the screen is black and you cant read the numbers,i e-mailed bellman and flint and also pieps who both said it could not be repaired,thought id ask on here if anyone has had a similar experience and had one repaired some where or if anyone has any suggestion where i could possibly ask. 1 Quote Link to post

dillydog 8,469 Posted March 30, 2016 Report Share Posted March 30, 2016 If it was the pieps I'd bin it, they charged £ for a repair and refurbishing years ago, better and as cheap to get a new one 3 Quote Link to post
