Sounds like Autotronics must be caught up and are on top of it! Hope all
goes well!

ps. Summit also honored the replacement value of the Off-road box towards
my current Digital-6 box. Just a little free ad plug for Summit!

Kurt, thanks alot for the info.Too late for me though, as I sent it directly
back to Autotroncis Friday morming USPS Certified Priority Mail, so it
should be to them by Tuesday. The MSD tech I spoke with on the phone told me
once them have it(I will know when they received it too, cause I sent it
Certified) in their hands, they will know with 4-6 days what they will do
with it., The MSD tech also told me with the 6470 Off-Road Units, they
simply send out new ones, because they cannot be repared since with this Off
Road Ignition Box, all the internal components are potted in epoxy, and are
not serviceable. So hopefully they will send me out a new one. Since I
shipped it USPS Priority, it will also be sent back to me Priority. I am
'hopin' to have it by the time I get my QuickD TB in mail. Thanks again,
hopefully there wont be a next time since it is only covered for 1 year, but
I will do my best to complain to MSD if it ever does die again. Thanks,
Kyle
