550 lamp housing

[JAMES RIANI]

Does anyone have a spare service-side lamp housing for a 550 that they don't need? Mine developed the all-too-common stress fracture on the actuator arm of the shutter.
We are in the Chicago area.

Spare? They are like $2500. They need to be replaced. Never heard of one being repaired.

They can be repaired since a long time. Repair kits are available from both FF and OCE. Mostly the actuator runs out of position and can’t move freely into opto-coupler.
