my announcement speaker in my automatic bay went bad and I ordered a new one. These speakers are expensive. Has anyone had any luck repairing them and keeping them on the shelf for a spare?

If it is indeed a Floyd Bell speaker, DigiKey.com is a distributor.

Oh I already ordered a new one from Autowash Maintenance and it's on the way. I just wondered about the possibility of repairing or rebuilding the old one and keeping it as a spare.

This one looks like the messages can be changed without Floyd Bell's programming.

Yes. I have a friend who is very good with electronics, circuit boards, and speakers. He used to build high-end sound equipment in Boston years ago. I will definitely take a look at the old one because I doubt it's too complicated.
