Quoted from alexanr1:Just got the machine, not doing any mods at this point, just trying to get it 100% working.
Long lead aftermarket part is available. $5 fix.

I am sure I will consider a long term fix down the road, but when you just drop 6k for a machine, you don’t necessarily want to add more expense right away.
You can get the generic "clock is broken" for a whole slew of things (the majority of which the ingo board fixes) I see your logic of why not just spend $5 now and kick the can down the road, but once you start putting serious hours in to clock issues, you will want the ingo board.
