The find a repair center portion of the MG website is way out of date, a lot of the named repair centers are only dealers. All Star Archery and Marine will take care of you.

Mo The head wound itself around the cord and it pulled the wires out of the GPS bottom receiver. Just so happened to be out of warranty. Its a poor design and you should take care not to let yours wind itself up too tight. The gps receiver is expensive to replace and Motorguide will not sell you a new one direct.

My GPS module went out after 1 yr. It would think it's linked to GPS and when you anchor, it would just start winding in circles. It also had a paint blistering issue, so MG send me a refurbished one. It's a board that will probably fail again unless they see enough of the same problem and fixes it once and for all.
