I'd go with Tristate Module.I know you have to ship it to 'em,and pay 
return shipping
which will probably cost $30 total,but if there is more wrong with that 
chassis besides
the Fly,HOT,R934,you may be in for a headache.
How much does the Fly,HOT and Resistor cost ??? As opposed to $149.00 ???
I know you have a few discrete components invested,but if it were me,from 
the start,I
would take $350.00 to replace the module and exchange/clean the coolant 
chambers,you
would have cleared around $200.00.
Of course I would have gotten a $50 est. up-front,and quoted $375(maybe 
more) to do it.

Now if you can get the Fly,HOT,and resistor to fix the set(plus coolant 
chambers),that
$350.00 looks even sweeter :-))

To answer your question I have no source for the Fly.
What's the part # ???
What #'s are on the Fly ???
