If you try and get the same year of manufacture it improves your chances of getting it to work. I got my replacement on e-bay from Howkins motor spares in Leicester for £95, which compared well with an after market unit at £399, or repairing my original unit for £220.80 from Central Services in Essex. Quite chuffed with myself :-)
Have Central Services moved from Ipswich Suffolk?
