Wadia Remote Repair Details

Manufacturer : Wadia

Customers Fault Description : Will not longer connect to machine. A separate universal remote works fine, so it is the remote at fault. I (obviously) tried changing the batteries to no effect

Remote Fixer Repair Response (see below) :

This Wadia remote arrived safely and on testing was found to be transmitting as per normal operation.

After a short while the control suddenly stopped working and the voltage dropped from 4.5 to 0.7.  Eventually this was traced back to the IR led which was intermittently shorting.  A replacement LED was fitted which restored full functionality.
