I will try all! Better off trying a BX first, every black brick I have tried on a GX starts... and shuts down after 1/2 second.

If you want to pay for the shipping charges both ways that is fine with me. The stuff is just sitting in a box at the house. We might as well put it to some good use

okay, so you put in the box the AA cap and the cable?

is your email adress i have the same as your paypal account? Then tell me how much postage you get...

(remember, if my mercury works than with your stuff, you get a bulk black 200Sbi, functional of course. you pay shipping for the 200SBi...

IF my mercury does not work with your parts, you get this stuff back and I PAY shipping costs...)

I don't think my cap will help. After speaking with Gary, he has tried a known good cap on his Black brick and 2 others, one of which was Oscar's prior to shipping it to him. In all three cases, it did not help. I too had a bad brick from computer_md (a black one). It was later exchanged for a good "green" one.

I don't see any reason to waste money on shipping if we're not going to have success.

I suppose there is a small chance it would work, a very small chance.

But who knows? I shipped it out today Global Priority Mail customs declared as a gift valued at $40.00 USD. So you should see it in 5 to 7 working days 8)

I truly hope it works for you but don't get your hopes to high Wink
