Just an update, I wasn't able to order the PCboard from the opaudio site because they were sold out. I found the same one one Aliexpress—also from China—and it was the same price: $299 plus $10 for shipping. I'm hopeful it'll be here in the next two weeks and will report back if it's a success...

So you have the Blank screen & none of the buttons on side or bottom working? I just bought an IS350 for my wife & the navi was working when i had my cousin check it out for me but after we drove in from New Orleans to Houston it wasn't working. Black screen & no buttons work. From what i'm told it is that board & like you found it only outside the US. I just bought a non navi control panel for now so she can have ac & heat, but really want to get the navi working without buying a used one that this may happen to again. PLEASE keep me informed as to how this goes for you. Hell, I'll even hook you up with a custom IS350 hat.

i just bought one the other day so as soon as it arrives i will try it out. I also just bought a used navi unit too. I was told by a few people it should work going from navi to non navi, no problem, just not the other way around. i just won't be plugging in the navi stuff. if it works it will definitely be a quick, inexpensive fix to have ac & heat while getting your navi unit fixed. it was only $70 for the non navi control panel. if it doesn't work i will just sell it. if it does i will keep it around in case the navi unit goes out again.

I'm not sure of the warranty but from what i'm told by a few companies that replace the boards is that it is the same exact board that is in them now, no improvement made to them, & they should be good for 8-10 years.

HI All, so just reading through the thread there are a couple of options but case in point - there is no aftermarket touch screen options for GPS and onboard controls that we can plug right in? I know there's David Kim on the boards here that has offered a fix and his success rate has been great. I have yet to hit him up, i've moved further south in california and going back to LA i don't have the time.

Okay, I just finished installing the new PC board and everything fired on correctly! It's been so long that I haven't had a working screen, and the ability to change climate controls, I've forgotten how it feels. The part is from the Aliexpress link identified above from RPGraphic and I received it via DHL in about 7 days from ordering—total cost $321 including shipping. Whole install job took my friend less than an hour. This definitely feels solid and I know if I need to have the faulty board reballed, I know I can do it locally for a cheaper amount than ordering a new board.
White Beast—I'm not sure what kind of warranty is offered, my guess is not more than a few months to a year.

Great news...I've been off the forum for a few months but never did get this fully working again. Thanks to this post I've also ordered a replacement board from Alliexpress, I'll report back once I have it installed.
