Many thanks for this, just the ticket, I will read through and see if it gives a definitive option to operate without the 12v backup/aux battery. The part you picked out could also be useful, so I don't have to wear ear defenders each time I need to open the bell box (in the past I replaced the...

Thanks all. To clarify there are no issues with the system currently. I just know after 10 years of hot and cold external temps, something will one day go on the PCB (and i am fully aware, yes, at this age i ahould just premptively replace the bell box). Might be hard to see from the photos but...

Very old school but does anyone have a manual for the Risco Nova 6 External Bell Box (GT2240)? Looked online, no joy. Short story is as this box is getting a bit long in the tooth, I want to work out if I can remove the 12v backup/tamper switch battery and it will still work correctly. What I...

Seems this unit was reproduced under several different names, two examples attached for Jooan (but not KKMoon), expect menus are similar or the same.

Hi all, Long story short, mother in law has one of these playing up and need to adjust settings. Managed to switch it from Chinese to English, but still need some guidance. Does anyone happen to have a pdf manual for this (or any other KKmoon model as menus will be the same or similar)...

Thanks Andy, I thought the same, if the button is below the water level in the cistern. However, I have the same cistern upstairs in an en-suite, the button is definitely above the water level in the cistern, it also shows the same deposits (albeit to a lesser extent). Another thing of note is...

Undid the screw and opened the push button mechanism. Can see from the limescale and the wet spot that it seems water travels along the flush cable. Yet to receive a response from the manufacturer...

Most of these issues I come across are pretty easy to identify the root cause, but this one really has me stumped. Per images, seems water is making it's way along the flush cable to the push button mechanism by some form of capillary action. Anyone come across this before or know what could be...

Apologies, late to this party. I have the same heat mark and warm to the touch spot on my ST9400C. This is Deja Vu for me, given my other posts on a Manrose extractor fan circuit, where a resistor is used to bring down the voltage for the timer circuit, then the heat given off by the resistor...

So reading further into this, seems the log cannot be cleared (in fact there seems to be some kind of EU rule/regulation that stipulates this). It is probably that it could be used as evidence in a criminal case, hence there is no option for someone to wipe it and in essence destroy evidence...

Sorry just to clarify, I mean erase or delete in full the event log, so it can start filling up from zero again.

Hi Allen, did you get a reply on this one? I just got the same warning and in the installer manual there are no instructions how to wipe/reset it. If anyone knows if you can do it on RSS maybe, please let me know the steps? Thanks all!

Thanks Ebee, Isolator is already in easy reach and en-suite to the bedroom as below, so switching it on/off is no trouble. My main concern given the scorched PCB and popped capacitor, is longevity of the timer circuit and any (however small) fire risk in the loft from a constantly hot resistor...

Last question on this topic from me hopefully... With the isolator switch on, light is switched on and fan powers on, then light switched off, once the timing capacitor has discharged and the fan comes to a halt (10 mins later in my case) is the resistor still going to be constantly bringing...

So I opted against drilling vents in the casing but there is enough headroom in the casing to locate the replacement 470uf 25v capacitor well away from the hot resistor, even though it is a bit bigger than the original 16v one (also went for Panasonic capacitor over cheapo ones). I also bent the...
