FYI, the part that is failing on so many Contiques' IMRC is the faulty transistor. Relocating the IMRC won't really aide in the failure by much (especially in the summer). I have tried the relocation trick and it still failed after a while.
If someone was to have a group buy for these transistors or the service to "fix" them, what would people do?
This has been covered before by Glenn in UK.

Relocating the IMRC worked perfectly for me...i'm sure the heat weakens this transistor initially and causes the fluctuation and then over a period of time completely kills it...lately we've been having 95+ degree weather and the secondaries open everytime..so i think relocation if done early enough is beneficial.
