Take it back to the store. Manufacture defect if it died after only 10 days. Attempting repair or disassembly will probably void warranty.

maybe the lightning has something to do with that but to make it sure try to call a service person and try to refer it and kindly ask some explanation if he can fix it so that next time you can justify the reason this thing happened.

It's the remote, and it's dying: the diode that sends the IR signal stops working when the temperature is high. Soon it will stop working at all so you will have to replace it. You can replace just the diode, but it's a fiddly job that will cost almost as much as an entire new one - better replace it whole

Hi Russell Webe, just a guess, but sounds as though the remote receiver board is faulty, however you might try new batteries in the remote first,it may help. failing that it is time to call the serviceman. Also try turning the power off to the Ac unit for about 5 minutes and then back on again. This will reset the electronics and again may solve your problem regards. col www.digitalcontrols.com.au
