Mertik Maxitrol G6R-H4T5-GA Remote Repair Details

Manufacturer : Mertik Maxitrol

Model : G6R-H4T5-GA

Customers Fault Description : In Manual mode the ignition buttons are working spasmodically and the same with the off. Also despite new battery being put in the battery is still flashing as empty.

Remote Fixer Repair Response (see below) :

This remote arrived safely and on testing was confirmed to have an erroneous battery level indicator.  This was due to a faulty 7133 regulator which also causes many intermittent issues (such as button response).  The regulator was replaced which restored full functionality.
