Printed Circuit Board Repairs:
Restoring Critical Elevator Components

In today’s modern elevator systems, printed circuit boards (PCBs) control essential functions such as motor drives, door operators, call buttons, and safety systems. When a PCB fails, it can bring an entire elevator to a standstill, leading to costly downtime, safety concerns, and frustrated building occupants. That’s why Master Elevator Supply proudly offers expert PCB repair services designed to keep your elevator systems running reliably without the high cost of full board replacement.

Serving Long Island City and the greater New York metro area, our PCB repair services deliver fast, cost-effective solutions that meet the demands of the elevator industry. Whether you’re dealing with intermittent failures, power issues, or complete board outages, we have the experience and technical capability to diagnose, repair, and restore your critical electronics.

We can repair a wide variety of printered circuit boards including:

What is a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) Repair?

PCB repair involves diagnosing faults on the circuit board and repairing or replacing damaged components. Instead of replacing the entire board, which can be expensive and hard to source, a skilled repair restores functionality by targeting only the failed areas.

Typical repair services include:

• Component-level troubleshooting and diagnostics
• Repairing broken traces and solder joints
• Replacing failed capacitors, resistors, and IC chips
• Reprogramming EEPROMs or firmware if needed
• Cleaning and conformal coating to protect against future damage

Why Choose PCB Repair Over Replacement?

Replacing elevator PCBs can be costly, with some boards priced at thousands of dollars or requiring long lead times from overseas suppliers. In many cases, the elevator controller itself may be obsolete, making replacement impossible without major modernization work.

Repairing the board offers several key advantages:

• Cost savings – Repairs often cost a fraction of board replacement.
• Faster turnaround – Get elevators back in service sooner.
• Preserve existing infrastructure – No need to upgrade entire systems.
• Environmentally responsible – Reduce waste by reusing functional hardware.

Our PCB Repair Process

At Master Elevator Supply, we follow a thorough process to ensure reliable, long-lasting repairs:

1. Initial Assessment – We inspect the board visually and electrically to identify faults.
2. Component Testing – Critical components are tested individually for failures or degradation.
3. Fault Isolation – Using multimeters, oscilloscopes, and diagnostic tools, we pinpoint exact failure points.
4. Precision Repair – We replace damaged parts, reflow solder joints, and repair broken traces under magnification.
5. Final Testing – Repaired boards undergo functional and load testing before being returned to service.

We back every PCB repair with strict quality control to ensure the board performs reliably once reinstalled in your elevator system.
