Default Hunter (44550) thermostat makes noise when I press the lightbar

I bought and installed one about a week ago and it's doing a great job
of controlling the furnace and temperature. But I discovered that
when I press the light bar on the left side of the devices, a quiet
and high pitched tone is emitted.

Has anyone else experienced this? Could it be result of a bad
component? Bad soldering? When I first opened the thermostat up I
wasn't terribly impressed w/ the workmanship of component mounting on
the circuit board.

The other question is of course - is this just normal and expected
operation of the device? I suppose I could call/email Hunter too!
But I do love talking to the "Internet."

I agree. It's best to ask questions like this on the internet, where you are
least likely to find a solution to the problem. Never call the manufacturer,
even though it's free and might result in the quickest results, especially
if the unit is still under warranty.


It sometimes is nice to know before calling the manufacturer if others
are also encountering the same problem.
