Bellfire Mertik Maxitrol Remote Repair Details

Manufacturer : Bellfire

Model : Mertik Maxitrol

Customers Fault Description : Remote heats up when turned on.

Remote Fixer Repair Response (see below) :

This Bellfires remote arrived safely from Derry and on adding batteries was confirmed to overheat with a burning smell coming from the remote.

On opening there was liquid acid in the remote from a battery leak.  This was shorting out various components.  The PCB was cleared of all contaminant and when retested was found to be functioning as normal with no overheating.
