Meade LX200 Classic Telescope Electronics Diagnostic Service

I'm offering a cost effective and time efficient service of checking the operational condition of the 5 main electrical components of the Meade LX200 Classic Telescope on a pass or fail basis.  You will be required to remove these components and ship them to me after purchasing this $75 service. The $75 fee is nonrefundable once you send the parts but can be applied towards the price of a refurbished component. Cost of one refurbished component is $200 with exchange of your failed component minus the initial $75 charge plus shipping.

Included in the $75 service fee is calibration of the ra & dec motor assemblies which sometimes is all that's needed for the repair of a runaway condition.

Because of the interconnection of these components, more than one component may need to be replaced at additional cost.

The removal and installation process is pretty straight forward. I will send you complete instructions and you can call me to walk you through it if needed.

Prior to sending your parts, I will email you a check off sheet of what parts to send.


I am an independent service technician and I have no affiliation with Meade Instrument Corporation.

I am not shipping my service so this is listed as free shipping but the purchaser of this service is responsible for the cost of shipping their components both ways
