Repair Service Terms & Conditions
1. Repair Agreement
By purchasing a diagnostic or repair service, you agree to send us your original unit for inspection, diagnosis, and/or repair. All repair orders are subject to a minimum non-refundable diagnostic fee of $139.99.
Before sending your item, you must complete our fillable Tanin Electronix Work Order Form and include it with your shipment. We will not begin work on any item without a completed and signed work order form.
2. Diagnostic Fee
Every repair item received by our facility is subject to a minimum $139.99 non-refundable diagnostic fee, as explained on the work order form. This fee applies regardless of whether the item is ultimately repaired, deemed non-repairable, or you decline the recommended repair or replacement.
If you decline a repair service or replacement part after diagnosis, you will still owe the diagnostic fee, plus return shipping charges based on the shipping method you choose.
3. REPAIR AND Warranty Terms
Repair service does not guarantee that every unit is repairable or that repair or replacement of one component will resolve all vehicle issues. Multiple systems may contribute to similar symptoms.
To qualify for warranty coverage on our repair work, you must send the complete assembled unit, including the lens and plastic covers where applicable. If you are sending a Nissan or Infiniti cluster, do not send the outer plastic housing, bezel surrounds, or dash pad, as these are not considered part of the gauge cluster.
4. Non-repairable Items
If your unit is found to be non-repairable and you choose to purchase a replacement unit, we may dispose of the original unit unless you specifically request its return.
If you want the original item returned, you must notify us before order completion and you will be responsible for all additional return shipping charges.
5. Shipping Insurance
If you use our UPS inbound shipping portal, you may purchase additional inbound shipping insurance to protect your shipment against loss, theft, or carrier damage while in transit to us.
At checkout, you may also purchase outbound shipping insurance for the return shipment back to you. Outbound shipments are automatically insured up to $100 at no additional charge. This usually covers minor shipping damage such as cracked lenses or light cosmetic damage.
We are not responsible for loss or damage beyond the insurance amount selected. If you ship the item yourself or provide your own return label, we cannot file an insurance claim on your behalf. Any shipping damage, loss, or insurance claim in that situation must be handled directly with your shipping carrier.
When you see Mark next . ask him what his dad was doing there 20 years or so after VW ? I think he rented a spot there to sell his woodworking stuff . ?? But I remember he rented a spot there when the building was split up into small shops .
I left Racine 24 years ago . I might get down there once a year . but when I do , I’ll make a stop by there . . again thanks for what your doing .
We would love for you to stop in and say hi! We will also make sure to ask Mark about the other business ventures that his dad did. We know he mentioned that his dad sold Cesnas and also jetskis! Quite the well rounded guy for sure.
Opps . I’m surprised Marlane didn’t correct me . the guy to the right of Hendricks is Fred not Frank . . so anyway what you have there is Gerald Hendricks and the crew of ACME Electric that wired your building . and later they did the adishion and some where along the lines AC was added to your building ,also wired by Acme electric .
I too have a slide reader that plugs in a USB port . . I’m guessing you have Mark Hendricks’s slides ? When you’re done with them I’ll have to stop in by uncle Mark with a twelve pack . 🙂 lol ,, mean time I’ll snag them off you page .
Again . thank alot for what you are doing . looks great . and best of luck with your business .
Hi Ryan, we love putting names to the faces in the old photos from the Hendricks Motors story! Feel free to swing by any time and say hi too! Maybe bring uncle Mark and we can show you around while he gives the tour for you. He has some great stories and your family history will be well preserved by us there. It is a great building and we are proud to be able to take care of it and continue in the tradition of car related businesses being run there. All the best,

Thanks for posting this was really interesting , my dad and brother are in the picture when the building was new my dad was thc electrician and brother was a helper. My dad Fran Staudenraus and Gerald Hendricks were also friends, and and my other brother married Gerald’s daughter years later. Acme Electric was his business name,
Hi Marlane! Thank you so much for posting and sharing this with us. We are so excited to learn more about the guys and the business. It really is remarkable what they did with the VW dealership and so much fun to look back on the time capsule of photos. Feel free to email us at taninautomarket@gmail.com if you would like us to send you the digital photos we converted from the slides!

The guy to the very right in the picture is my brother Reed Harding he must have been about 16 in the picture
Hi Heather, thanks for commenting! We are so thrilled to be learning more about everyone in the photos! We would love to learn more about what your brother did at the shop too!
The man to the left is “Red” Franics Staudenraus, the owner of ACME Electric,
Acme Electric did all of Gerald Hendrick’s electrical work .
As you go through those old slides you may find some old VW vans that say ACME Electric on them as ACME Electric bought there work vans from Hendricks motors .
The man to the right of Hendricks is Frank . Red’s head electrician .
Still working on who the man is on the far right .
Me??? I’m the only grandson of both ! ,Red is my dad’s father and Hendricks is my mother’s father . . so from left to right is , Grandpa Staudenraus . Grandpa Jerry. Frank .and ??? Might be an uncle ?
I’m Ryan Staudenraus. And thank you so much for doing the history on the old VW shop .
Hi Ryan, Thank you so much for posting and filling in some of the missing info on your grandfathers and the guys! We are so appreciative of your assistance and excited to hear from a family member of the Hendricks family! We have more photos that we transferred to digital, for upcoming blog posts too. We did see some trucks that said ACME. Pretty cool! If you want to email our marketing lead, Jen at taninautomarket@gmail.com she will happily send you the photos to share with your family via digital. It is much easier than developing slides! We purchased a converter for the slides so if you all have others that you want us to help with, just let us know! Preserving the history of Hendricks and Racine is very important to us here and so much fun to share with the world. We look forward to speaking with you soon.
