CYRUS Remote Repair Details

Manufacturer : CYRUS

Customers Fault Description : Locks up consistently, leaving a lit function light locked on solid as well. Volume buttons now only work when pressed excessively hard - and this sometimes causes a lockup as well. The rest of remote functions appear ok.

Remote Fixer Repair Response (see below) :

This Cyrus remote arrived safely from Dorset and on testing was found to have sluggish button response and would occasionally lock up for a few seconds.

When opened there was contamination over the button contacts, this was from the button contacts decomposing and causing a resistance over the contacts.

The PCB was cleared of all contaminants and then replacement conductive pads glued under each of the effected buttons which restored full functionality.
