    Hi all,

    I am the very happy owner of an Acer Aspire 2002WLci - one of the reasons I got it was that there was a bluetooth option. I have since discovered that Acer does not support the bluetooth option on my Aspire, but they have the bluetooth option on subsequent models using the same case. I have found the bluetooth harness in the battery compartment, and there is already a bluetooth switch on the laptop - I just need the module - but Acer won't sell it to me. The newer models 2012,2020 have the same modules that I need - how can I obtain one of these?

    The part number for the Acer bluetooth module is:
    54.A14V5.004 (Bluetooth card WNC 81.BU513001 BT+ANT)

    Is there somewhere I can order one of these (obviously I am not a Acer repair depot)?

    Please help. I feel a little lied to, since it says it was an option on their web site and my manuals - and its only since March so its not like its a really old notebook.

    Aspiring fan :)
