My kelvinator remote for my air con just wont work ive put new batteries in and the screen lights up for 3 seconds then goes blank and canot do anything with it

pull up the front cover the grill looking piece , not the air out louvers , there maybe a little button , push that in if air con starts up , then you remote sensor may be faulty or the remote itself .

see the led bulb of the remote control by using a camera then switch on the remote if it blink the remote is good but if not its bad. dont forget to put an battery on it. then test the ac unit manually, if the unit start replaced your remote control.

The cooling symbol on the remote is generally an "icicle" , the heating is a symbol of a blazing sun. Make sure you have selected the right mode. Also check the filters... if they are dirty, you wont get decent heating from any air con.. cheers,

BTW, I believe that electrolux have a site you can download instruction books.

May be your indoor room sensor problem. Replace it.

Problem with your remote. Better replace. Plz don't waste you money on buying batteries.

Try one more time with another new batteries and still the problem is, replace new remote.

take the remote and put it in front of your cell phone.turn on the camera of your phone and push the buttons of the remote.if you see a light in your phone the remote is ok and then the eye of the pc board(is a small plate)has problem.

Check the micro processor control whether it is in manual mode or not. If not check the sensor whether it is functioning or not. If everything is fine then remote control has to be changed.

change batterys if not working contact tech support from kelvinator

More than likely it is the remote sensor in the indoor unit. Then again I presume that it is the correct remote control. Sometimes a remote for one aircon may not communicate with another aircon even if they are the same brand.
