Ok so we all know the line 6 pod 500HDs have faulty usb ports that break extremely easily and a line 6 repair was quoted at 200
I have found a person who does it much cheaper and quicker this guy replaced the usb controller qnd usb on my unit and I've had no issues for the usb repair if thats just the issue its 40$ plus shipping back
If you need the usb controller chip and the usb in total i payed $81.00 that included both repairs and the shipping back to me so by all means if you wish to contact him i will provide you with an email to contact him :)
