There's one listing on ebay. I haven't used this vendor before, so standard caveats apply.

Yes, I saw that one. I sent him a "Best Offer" yesterday, but no reply yet. Thanks.

If you have part and replace U101 , what do you think error can relative with U102 ?

How to check U102 dead or alive when DMM power on ?

U102 may have an issue, but I can see that the meter is basically reading OK - it's just stuck on the wrong range because U101 is not processing the serial data.

I've made several orders from UTSource and have always been happy. It's kind of hard to figure out their price structure though; I don't see a price listed for this part but apparently they do have it. You might email them with an inquiry; the ebay seller price shocked me.

I sent them a RFQ several days ago. They quoted me $80 for the part. No thanks!

I got what I hope is not a counterfeit replacement part for U101 from an eBay seller. I replaced it, and now I am getting error #604.

Is there a way to verify that U101 is functioning correctly?

I saw another post here that this was caused by a bad U201, U102, and some zeners. It looks like the previous owner already replaced U201, and checking the voltages on its pins, it seems to be working.

I notice that the voltage across CR203 is 4.58V. Schematic says this is a 5.1V zener. I know the zener voltage does vary with current, but that seems pretty far off.
