Customer's Fault Description
I brought this Hitachi DAB system from Argos (in 2011) a few months ago I drop the remote control for this system on to floor, remote did not break however since then when passing buttons to turn on / off system or change radio station, CD, I Pod it become a very much a hit and miss that the remote control will carry out this function, and recently it has become increasing less so.
I think it because most if not all the buttons are not now line up with the control panel inside remote.
I contacted Argos and Hitachi to try and buy a replacement remote control to be told that this model was only on sale in Argos outlets and it now no longer made by Hitachi or on sale in Argos outlets.so I cannot get a replacement remote control for this equipment.
This Hitachi handset arrived safely. On testing the main standby button was very intermittent and required a hard press to activate.
On opening the controller the problem became apparent, there was contamination on a few of the buttons (this contamination is from deteriorating rubber pads, this was cleaned up and the pads themselves repainted with conductive paint, full functionality was restored.
