Finding the Right Connector for Your Epson L1800 Control Panel

Question:
I found a 9-Pin FFC Connector Cable for L1800 Control Panel and Mainboard [https://bch-youtube-fan-store.myshopify.com/products/9-pin-ffc-connector-cable-for-l1800-control-panel-and-mainboard], but I need the connector it plugs into. Do you sell that part?

Answer:
Thank you for reaching out! I apologize for not getting back to you sooner. I understand that printer issues can be frustrating and require urgent solutions, but I also want to take the time to provide a detailed and accurate answer. We at BCH Technologies [https://bchtechnologies.com] appreciate your engagement and support, especially through our YouTube channel [https://youtube.com/@bchtechnologies]. Your feedback helps us continue refining our technical knowledge and creating helpful content.

Now, regarding your question—if you're looking for the component where the 9-Pin FFC Connector Cable attaches, it's likely the control panel of the Epson L1800. Yes, we do carry the control panel. You can find it by searching for "control panel for L1800" on our website, BCH Technologies [https://bchtechnologies.com]. If you’re looking for a different part, such as the actual FFC connector mounted on the mainboard, that can be trickier. These connectors are often part of the circuit board itself and are not typically sold separately. If you suspect the connector on the board is damaged, replacing the entire board might be necessary unless you have experience with micro-soldering.

Addressing printer issues can be a complicated affair due to the hands-on nature of the problems. So, we're unable to provide remote troubleshooting, suggestions, or support for printer repairs. We offer an in-person evaluation and repair service via our local diagnostic facility [https://bchtechnologies.com/printer-repair-service]. Given the high demand, we operate on a first-come, first-served basis, which means it may take a few weeks before you can drop off your printer. Our services cover full printer repairs and specific part replacements, with clear instructions on how to proceed. However, we recognize that our rates may not be the most budget-friendly, so we highly encourage self-research and DIY solutions. You can begin by browsing our YouTube channel [https://youtube.com/@bchtechnologies]. To find relevant videos, use the search icon next to "About" on the right-hand side of the menu bar. With hundreds of videos created over the years, it’s difficult to recall every topic offhand, so the YouTube search function is the best way to find what you need. Additionally, YouTube may recommend helpful content from other channels to assist you further.
