Arcam Solo V1 Remote Repair Details

Manufacturer : Arcam

Model : Solo V1

Customers Fault Description : Remote does not work. Tried new batteries, but old ones were starting to gunk. I used the remote 2 weeks ago and have tried cleaning the contacts .

Remote Fixer Repair Response (see below) :

This Arcam remote arrived safely and on testing was confirmed to be dead.

On opening there was signs of corrosion on the main PCB from a battery leak.  The print was cleared of all contaminants and a couple of suspect joints were re-soldered. This restored full functionality.
