[Arabidopsis] experience with affy 428 scanner???

Hi all,

Our old affy 428 has started having a problem. The cy5 channel is
giving about 1/2 the intensity as our cy3.  I checked our hybridized
chip on a different scanner and found the cy5 hybridized fine, thus I
know the initial problem is with the scanner.  Unfortunately, Affy no
longer supports their 428. We have an in-house electronic repair guy,
but his experience is limited.  Has anyone out there ever heard of a
similar problem in the 428s and if so, do you remember what the fix
was?

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks
