Hi, due to some unexpected water damage, my circuit board for my shunt has been destroyed.
Where can I buy a new PCB? The shunt itself is fine.
asked
Can I buy just a shunt PCB for BMV-712?
Yes I believe that the BMV current shunt PCB IS available for purchase individually as spare part.
Here is a link to an Australian Victron dealer that stocks and sells it;

Oh wow that's cool... we can't even order them separately here.
Maybe that dealer has access to certain spares or maybe he is splitting up full BMV's - I don't know.
I just recall seeing the PCB for sale individually from that dealer a while ago and had another quick look for it.
I accidentally received two boxes (total 12 or so) a couple of years ago, and haven't run out yet, made some people happy with them locally. (I tried to order only the display part of it...)
@Rkuris, unfortunately the PCBA is not available for individual sale; your best course of action is to contact the distributor from whom you originally purchased the device and inquire about getting a replacement PCBA. Given that the fault is caused by water damage it's not technically a warranty issue, but there's a very good chance that your distributor will have an extra PCBA laying around or will be able to work with you to get a replacement.
If you're unable to locate your original purchase information to identify your distributor, Victron has a handy tool for locating the original seller based upon your device serial number.
Indeed, if the distributor doesn't carry it, look for a distributor that also does repairs.
I've replaced a couple myself also in the past. sometimes it's very difficult to shield them enough from the environment.
Thanks everyone! PKYS was able to help me and is sending the part. This time the shunt PCB is getting an enclosure.
