mertik maxitrol G6R-R4A G6R- H4S1 Remote Repair Details

Manufacturer : mertik maxitrol

Model : G6R-R4A G6R- H4S1

Customers Fault Description : Response from Handset to Receiver and Receiver to Gas block with some operation from control. No progress to spark/ignition except for long beep.

Attempts to match handset and Receiver with code. No proven ?

Remote Fixer Repair Response (see below) :

 

This fireplace control and receiver arrived safely and on inspection the receiver battery block had signs of a battery leakage by having corroded terminals.  The receiver was opened and there was a large amount of contamination over the PCB (see image)

The remote itself is sending a signal albeit a little weak.  Sadly due to the damage on the receiver a repair is not possible and a replacement would be the better option.
