You're right.... meant to say shine the light on the sensor. It's tough
getting old and having brain farts and finger farts at the same time.
Don't even have a dog to blame it on.

The sensor is just an IR LED. An easy way to test if it is the sensor
is to shine a bright flashlight onto the non-IR LED. If it shuts off it
is the sensor which can be sourced anywhere. If it doesn't shut off, it
isn't the sensor. Sensors are a major problem with Fellowes & I always
keep at least 6 sets in stock.


LEDs are emitters of light, not sensors.
