Acorn Stairlift armrest switch not working, what to do?

If one of the armrest switches on your Acorn Stairlift is not working, there are a few possible causes and solutions. Here are a few steps you can try to troubleshoot the issue:

1. Check the wiring: If the armrest switch is not working, it is possible that the wiring for the switch may have become loose or damaged. To access the wiring, you will need to remove the armrest. To do this, first remove the armrest cover by removing the screws that hold it in place. Then, carefully disconnect the wiring for the switch and check for any loose or damaged connections.
2. Check the switch: If the wiring for the switch is in good condition, the problem may be with the switch itself. To access the switch, you will need to remove the armrest. Once the armrest is removed, you can test the switch with a multimeter to see if it is functioning properly. If the switch is faulty, it will need to be replaced.
3. Contact Acorn Stairlifts: If you are unable to diagnose or repair the problem with the armrest switch, it is best to contact Acorn Stairlifts for assistance. They should be able to provide you with specific instructions and guidance for removing the armrest and repairing the switch.
