| - | KE5C made a series of photos detailing how to get to the encoder board and replace an encoder (http://www3.telus.net/ve7tk/Orion%20RIT%20Encoder%20Replacement.pdf). This is a very good starting point. I've listed some details I had to deal with replacing them all. | + | KE5C made a series of photos detailing how to get to the encoder board and replace an encoder (http://www.ve7tk.com/Orion%20RIT%20Encoder%20Replacement.pdf).
