Point that do not work well
1- The fan does not cut off in 2 minutes, at the beginning the fan cut off after the end of the time in about 2 minutes. Today it is running continuously.
2- I don't have them in the unit, where can I get one to complete the head unit?
3- filters with fungus signal, it can be cleaned, I understand that the best thing to do is to change, in that case where can I get the green/blue filters and the cover of each filter.
I remain attentive to the comments.

Do you actually need a Color Head for color enlargements?
I don't as I only make B&W
Try this source, I know nothing about it https://kaiserfotous.com/color-head-for-enlarger/
Good luck!

It is a variable contrast black and white enlarger.

I have converted a head to computer fan, they have low vibration and very cheap
and use hand held filter sets like this
Ilford Multigrade Filter Set 3.5x3.5"
They will match modern Ilford paper

There is a guy in the famous auction house that is in New York that specifically works on the Ilford multi contrast head. I sent him mine when I had some issues with it a while back. Came back to be in short order with a reasonable fee for his services. If this is an option for you I can chase him down.

Thank you very much for sharing, is the option, tendere to see the cost of shipping from Paraguay to the U.S. (I have shipping costs to USA, arrangement, shipping cost to Paraguay), if I buy a new one is only the value of the new and the cost of shipping to Paraguay. That is why I am evaluating a heilland head is a question of making the fine accounts and have the budget.
remember the cost of the repair.
One option is to send only the board where all the circuits and components are. that is light.
If you share the contact, I'll talk to you.
Thanks
