Gear selector compatibility

[Nechaken]

I had to replace mine, I forget if I went LR060016 to LR090489 or the other way around, but the new part was different from the old one. No problems and no need to program anything. I believe the suffix is the edition / revision. Again, mine was different but no problems.

Thanks Nechaken—You've given me the confidence to go for it.

To close out this thread I'm happy to report that I've installed the gear selector which came in with the -AC suffix and it works like a charm.

My fingers are crossed regarding longevity—seems like there are some fragile components within—sniffing around the internet yields stories of zip-tie workarounds, bad solder joints on the circuit board, etc. The fix is not hard, but it's such a catastrophic and unpredictable failure that I'm tempted to keep a spare in the back.
