I have one each of Mk1 and Mk2, both dead and can't get any response out of Schofiel. Any one else doing repairs or anyone interested in them for spares or repairs or shall I bung them on ebay?

The Mark 1 was wrongly connected when fitting to a car and is now 'dead', there is a visible burn mark on the chip nearest to the plug for the ribbon to the display.
Mk 2 had can't find HD probs.

The Mk2 should be fixable, and perhaps the mk1 as well.

I'm interested in them for parts, though, as I'm trying to retire from the repairing (other people's players) business.

Cheers

'Tis a shame, though I can understand why.

Thankfully, my player has not yet needed any repairs.

i'd definitely buy the mk2 for parts - i still have my original mk2 that is badly in need of parts like fuses and a working daughter board and display as I am trying to do DIY repairs and restore my baby!

Have you sold the M1 yet? If not does it come with a sled?
