"Have you tried opening up the buttons and cleaning the board and battery contacts?" I initially did that,,,, and it sometimes works - for a while. I'll probably try that again over the next couple of days whilst deciding what to do.

Thanks WC: The only Byron one that I have has the plug-in receiver on the blink. It does have a working bell-push ! The others are Homelec. I've looked on google for Homelec & dropped a line to one of 'em. I have no idea when or if they will reply. If anyone has actual contact details of...

Not life threatening, but I now have three wireless doorbell chimes,,,, but the Push Buttons have all failed. I was about to buy yet another kit, but then wondered: Is there a Universal or programmable Bell push out there ? HAPPY CHRISTMAS to you all

Thanks OwainDIYer: A bit hefty for the guys bungalow,,,,,, but will pass it on. It's his choice. all the best

Cheers BAS: Is it new? About 15/18 months old. Has it ever worked? Yep - up to a couple of days ago. Is it old? About 15/18months Return it for a replacement? Bit too old - have dropped 'em a line anyway (you never know !?) Are either of you any good at fault-finding...

My neighbour has a BYRON PORTABLE DOOR CHIME (http://www.chemistdirect.co.uk/byron-portable-door-chime_1_43527.html). For some reason, the ‘sounder’ is playing up. He initially thought the battery in the door push was faulty, but this was still over 3vdc. The mains powered sounder does throw...

Thanks Rocks, There dosn't seem to be a top & bottom element (in the lower oven). There is a perforated back panel where the fanned air/heat come through. I know that some models have all three elements,,, and some have the T & B, & just a fan for circulation. I'll have a look on...

I need to replace the element on the above cooker. The LED at the control knob illuminates, and the fan comes on, so I am assuming that power is getting to the right area. I had a quick look, and it seems that there is only a circular fan element to this model,,,, but I can't see how to get...

,,,,,, like nearly everything else nowadays - not enough profit I s'pose. I dropped ROCA a line to ask if there is a better replacement - citing a couple of posts on these pages. If my memory serves me right - they don't like answering e-mails. Thanks for your help mate.

many thanks for that. I didn't expect to see them on there - more fool me ! What i'm thinking now is: will a new kit make a difference,,,, or is it a design flaw that will carry on - anyone know ? cheers

Good Old ROCCA - Again. The push buttons on my WC cistern won't stay in place after flushing. It mainly occurs when the smaller button is pressed. It seems to 'lip' under the bigger one, & lift it out. Sometimes this happens straight away,,,, sometimes it takes a few moments,,, where...

UPDATE: Reply from DEALEC: "Unfortunately we are unable to supply Consort spares" I had high hopes for them too. Was worth a try though - thanks again - still searching,,,,,,,,,, ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Now Sorted. Managed to find a company in Wales F...

Many thanks JJ. Have dropped em a line. Will put results here for other readers.

I need to replace the thermostat on my CONSORT HeatFlow Fan Heater. Any ideas where I ought to try please ? Have dropped Consort a line, as well as the KEMA KEUR the stat manufacturer. thanks

Hi guys, The plastic 'Pull' switch connector has just snapped on my old (BFH2T) fan heater. I was stripping it down to repair, but come across a couple of recessed screws that I don't have tools for. I thought that an External (Female) Torx would do it, but it won't. The screw head is very...

Thanks guys, I thought that the a/c current needed to go a certain way through the system/components so that each component in turn can do its job. I had no idea it was interchangeable. Sorry if my calling it a transformer (as opposed to SMPS) confused anyone,,,, it's just that it...

Left terminal goes to the yellow Capacitor. Right terminal goes to 'blue' Resistor.

I have some Chinese lighting transformers by Sunnycai. Unfortunately they don't say which terminal is for the live (230v) feed. There are the two usual primary connectors. The left one goes to a Capacitor (yellow box type) first, and the right one goes to a Resistor first. Can anyone tell...

Cheers for your help. Your link shows an item very similar to the AKO one (above). There is a Titan one as well which dosn't have the luxury of a digital readout. Am in touch with their technical people to confirm it does what I want. If I get it sorted, i'll report back here in case...

Thanks Matthew, Yep - I just came across that item (& another) which looks ideal. The AKO one is a bit on the dear side for an experiment,,,, but it shows there are specific things out there. I've also e-mailed a couple of 'project' sites, to see if I can build one, or if there are...
