Weatherproof since 194wireless 433 MHz in/out thermometer - loose wire to battery found when back was opened. Needs hot glue soldering. Check everything inside before you toss it if it doesn't work.

Problem fixed. Loose battery wire. The LCD screen is only showing three items, one says it is on. I have reset both send and receive units but not changes. Batteries are new.

I had the same problem and finally found my manual. Here's what to do, everyone!

1. Take back panel off the sending unit, where the three batteries are, by unscrewing the 4 phillips head screws (assuming you, like I, had put the screws back in after installing new batteries). You will see a little gray button in a hole above where the batteries are; the little button is one you can push down with the same phillips screwdriver you took the 4 screws out with - don't do this yet.

2. Now, hold down the "channel" button on front of receiver panel for 2 sec, until the dash in the "ch" box and the place where the temp is supposed to be starts blinking.

3. Now, while these indicia are blinking on the panel, push the little gray button down and hold it for 2 seconds. This causes the transmitter to "register" with the receiver. You should now see a 1 in the "ch" box and get a temp reading.

4. Put screws back on, put receiver where you want it, proceed with rest of your life.

SOURCE: The wireless receiver will not communicate with

sometimes the wireless reciever may interfere with other devices, try unplugging all compnents including power, switch on after 5 mins then reset by the console and try again, if this does not work, it may be a faulty guitar or receiever, thanks

There is no way to turn off beeping. From this site: http://www.chaneyinstruments.com/FAQ.aspx
found solution - Q: My wireless weather station periodically beeps, why?
A: Make sure that any alert and/or alarm features are deactivated first. Constant, sporadic beeping is generally due to the unit's ability to detect a foreign radio frequency of another wireless unit when that unit transmits a signal. Wireless devices that may cause beeping but are not limited to these devices are; scanners; computers w/wireless keyboard/mouse; or other wireless weather instruments. Essentially, any wireless devices transmitting on a radio frequency have the potential to interfere with each other. Limit the amount of wireless devices to lesson the chance of interference. When beeping occurs, one device will need to be deactivated.

Another external temp gauge showed up on the other channel, so my neighbor or someone is using the similar unit. MY SOLUTION: opened back of case and cut black wire to piezo speaker (at base if rear cover opposite side of stand-up prop) that creates beep. ALL good now.

Recepter Radio HD does not work

8-21-2021 FM reception across the band was degrading in sensitivity over time & now barely gets 2 very strong stations . I'm an Electrical Engineer radio designer. I intuited that the tuner's frequency synthesized oscillator could be corrupted / unstable causing a noise that degrades sensitivity. Today I confirmed that the oscillator is indeed unstable from digital noise in the synthesis mechanism. worse at the 88 mhz end than the 108 mhz end. This typical action for a synthesizer. Hope when open it up a simple degraded resisitor or capacitor component in the synthesizer will reveal irtself. Elsewhere someone reported contaminant on the PCB which is also a likely cause of degredation. Perhaps a leaky back-up memory AA battery dripped "acid" on the PCB and just needs to be cleaned ? jerry at jdm labs98498a37-21ab-4fa2-8149-f5469fdaca18.jpgdscf1041-czevabvc1n20cixjnvmmdozv-6-2.jpg


8.22. I measured the the spectrum of the FM tuner's superheterodyne oscillator which should be a single pure frequency . Instead at the 2 ends of the band the spectrum plots show it has multiple frequencies spaced about 40 kiloHertz apart which becomes a 40 kilohertz "noise" interfering with the desired signal . The frequency synthesizer is a Sanyo chip LC72131 and I'm searching for the application schematic diagram of the Recepter ( only owners manual is available) to identify which components may have failed or shifted. Hopefully the chip is ok but need to figure that out too.

How to open the behringer b215xl cabinet and replace the horn?

Horn not working on Behringer B215XL passive speaker. Tools used: Long(12") phillips screwdriver, adjustable spanner, magnet pen,multimeter,1.5 v battery short length of wire, hot glue gun, soldering iron, solder, 24volt 75w halogen bulb G6.35 available from music shops or ebay.

Remove the speaker output nuts, and four screws that hold the Speakon connectors on the back.

Remove the 18 screws that hold the case halves together using a long shafted phillips screwdriver. I used a magnet pen to recover the screws from their long tunnels. Note that the two holes have shorter screws, and that the screws underneath the handles

Carefully pry the halves of the case apart and disconnect the four speaker wires. Check the resistance between the tweeter terminals using a multimeter which should approx. 3 - 5 ohms. No resistance = dead tweeter.
Using a 1.5v battery touch the + end to one of the tweeter terminals and briefly run a wire from the other terminal on the speaker to the - ve on the battery. It doesn't matter which way round the battery is for this test. You should hear a click which will indicate that the tweeter is functioning. Don't use any battery with a voltage higher than 1.5v .

Peel back one side the white insulation material away from its glued points, unscrew the four screws and remove the crossover unit The crossover uses a 24 V 75w halogen bulb as a fuse. In my case the bulb was ok but the bulb holder had become detached from the circuit board, which I detected by using the continuity setting on my multimeter. I removed all the glue, unsoldered the connection from the rear of the board, fitted new legs to it and resoldered. I fitted a new bulb and re covered with a generous blob of hot glue to stop it vibrating loose.
Refit the crossover unit, and reconnect the speakers, the terminals are marked +/-. Tweeter + yellow - blue, woofer +red, - black. Now's a good time to connect to a sound source to check all is working. Using a hot glue gun reattach the white insulating material to the inside of the speaker case. Refit the jack nuts and four Speakon connector screws on the rear of the case. Gently replace the front cover and all the screws noting the position of the shorter and thinner screws. Hope this was useful.

I opened my thermometer to change the battery and the two red wires detached. Where do I reconnect them [solder them].

The two red wires more than likely go to the speaker on the back
cover. There is usually a small dab of solder where the wires go.
Re solder the two wires to the speaker and don't worry about which
wire go to witch dab of solder. The speaker is not polarity sensitive.

I found a blue wire loose coming from i believe the therm o disc.. or sensor...how do i glue it back or do i have to buy another sensor....this is for my dryer kenmore series 70 part is 338906

If you know where the wire came loose from you can reattach it. Many times dryer components have terminals and the wires are connected using connectors, otherwise they were soldered on and you will have to get a soldering iron and some solder and heat the terminal up to get the old piece of wire off and then reattach the other wire by soldering it on (note: you may have to extend the wire so it will reach the terminal which you can do by getting female and male wire connectors). There are many useful sites that can show you how to solder wire if you've never done it before. I've found that <www.youtube.com> is the best site to learn things like that because many times they will show you a visual.

My power jack is loose and doesn't charge my batteries. I had it resoldered but its loose again. What can I do to fix this ?

It needs to be soldered again. Hopefully, there is not any additional damage like a broken jack or a dislodged solder pad.

The way I have helped these problem is the past is with hot glue. I will see if there is an adjacent structure and glue to it. Otherwise, I will just build a small support around the jack. I am still very cautious around the power jack afterwards.

Remington R 9170 shaver

http://www.remington-products.com/manuals/ib_mftitaniumu.pdf

In the PDF instructions it describes how to remove the batteries. The instructions fail to mention that there is a spit of yellow glue that is holding one of the batteries to the curcuit board with a death grip. Undoubtedly, you will have to use a knife, not in the glue, but on the skin of the battery. Pull on the teather wire, and slice the battery skin around the glue.

If after removing the batteries, and you are not thouroughly discusted with the manufacturer, then purchase a couple of AA Ni-cad batteries solder the positive of one battery to the negative of the other. then solder the free positive end to the red wire, and then the blue wire to the free negative end. Then try to remember how to reverse the process and put it back together, without leaving any parts out. ;-)

There is a risk of injury by overheating the battery when soldering. That should be avoidable if you remember how to drop solder. Just like its name, it involves having the wire securely held in place. Then hold solder iron over the wire/battery end. Then take some rosin-core solder and apply the solder to the hot tip. Then make sure the newly melted solder lands on the contact. Keep in place until it cools and holds the wire to the battery.

If you think this is better than writing to Remington complaining that they did not make it easier and use contacts, instead of solder, so we can simply pop in a new set of batteries. Or maybe look at other manufacturers, and see if they are any better.

Broken Power adapter

external power adapter? if you broke open the gps receiver and used any glue make sure you didnt coat the silver looking tiny metal parts or you just insulated them from the power adapter.. scrape off the glue gently with a small flat screwdriver. double check your wires to it the center conductor is usually white or red but the outer is ground or copper braid or black wire also check and make sure you didnt solder splash short the connector. gently tug on both wires if they bust loose you need to resolder proper 60-40 rosin core. adapter problems is easy . get a meter and check for voltage out from it should be like 14 if rated 12v. also you can just plug it up and trace to point where the voltage is lost to battery. good luck
