Electric Heater Remote Repair Details

Manufacturer : Electric Heater

Customers Fault Description : Nothing working when pressing buttons Have changed the battery but still no joy

Remote Fixer Repair Response (see below) :

This remote control arrived safely from Wrawby and on testing was found to be transmitting permanently without a button being pressed.

This had drained the supplied battery.  The issue was found to be caused by contamination over one of the button contacts that was shorting its contacts.

The PCB and button array was cleared of all contaminants which then restored normal functionality (see testing video)
