Several of my DMM 4CUs are in need of trigger wire replacement. Sending them to DMM's stateside proxy for repairs is $20 per cam plus shipping, a price I'd like to avoid paying, and I know Fish Products lists it as a service on their website, but I'd rather do it myself and avoid shipping costs/hassles. Does anyone have experience using the BD trigger wire repair kits on non-Camalots? Other methods of repair or advice would be greatly appreciated, as well.

The above link is to a picture that shows the tigger bar/wire setup nicely for those unfamiliar but willing to offer some advice.

Thanks in advance,

Aaron

I picked up their kit and have repaired a good number of cams with it.
http://www.thecamdoctor.com I'm assuming it's the trigger wires that are messed up.

One wire on one cam is blown, and several other wires are starting to fray a little bit.

Thanks for the link, Mike, I'll definitely look into it.
