Fortunately mine was in prime condition, not a scratch, so I don't have 
the problem (yet). Read about it, though.
I guess replacements are difficult to get by partly because they are 
gray scale encoders, and also today all others use optical encoders with 
different shapes and nof bits (or 'contact points').
