hi.if sustainer becomes faulty in pc1 can you wire a different sustainer ?,i dont think you can buy the stock sustainer,will a different sustainer work ?

Yes, but not without some surgery to the guitar. There is no direct swap.
I assume it's no longer under warranty.
Question though.
What issues are you having with it?
These things are notorious for the leads breaking off on the battery box. A solder job fixes that.
Another fix is simply disconnecting all the plug in leads on the main board and reconnecting them.-Rick -
im not sure if the sustainer has a issue yet bud,i took it to a very good guitar tech today,he going wire it up.i bought the guitar sustainer was swapped out for a single coil,but sustainer came with guitar and seller is adimant sustainer works.the tech looked at sustainer and says all looks good,no doggey soldering or cowboy been at it,so we wait n see what he comes back with.Comment

Yeah... swapping out the sustainer driver for a standard single coil disables the sustainer.
The Driver needs to be reinstalled and hope whoever did it did not trash the harness.
I have a full wiring diagram I can email you if needed.-RickComment
