Remote Fixer Repair Response

This Kenwood remote control arrived safely and on testing was found to be transmitting but the signal was non pulsed meaning there is no "data" being transmitted.

The Oscillator and IR LED was replaced but this did not rectify the issue, unfortunately this has led to the main IC being the fault.  This IC is not available as a spare which has made a repair not possible.

A google search was carried out and a replacement remote control can be found here - https://ebay.us/6hGHI6 - Please check with the seller for further details. 

This item was disposed of as per the customers email request 22nd April 2024
