Home | First message in thread | Previous messageWayne, I found the problem in one of our cameras here. I have 24 of them and so far six have had this same exact problem. That is about a 30% failure rate in just over one year. The power switch is a bad design. That IS the problem. I repaired two of these this morning with opening up the unit and the switch and cleaning the contacts. They are silvered and had a black coating on them which is the problem. A new switch is only $1.16 each. But since I do not yet have any of them I wanted to see if this was the real problem and it is. This is a simi-pro unit and not just any location can repair this model correctly. It sounds like someone already got you once. This is about and hours worth of work if one knows what they are doing.

Hey Bud, WoW! That was a fast reply. Never in my wildest dreams did I expect and answer that fast let alone an answer at all. I'll try working on the switch and hopefully it will work. Does it also interfere with the vcr/cam lights blinking on and off? I never knew anyone that had that many cameras. By chance you wouldn't have an extra one (in top shape of course) for sale? I could use another one in my studio. Thanks Again, Bud Sincerely, Wayne P. Sorry to bother you again Bud. I just noticed the times on the emails. Where in the world are you located??? I'm in North Carolina is I didn't mention it earlier. Later! Wayne |
