The first and last ones are important I think. The remote controls tend to
suffer from debris from the rubber mat getting in the hole where the contact
is made and stopping it from working. It can be cleaned out but this
normally requires you to open up the remote, remove the mat and use ipa to
clean off gunge and flakes that are in the holes where the contacts are.
six months on and its got to be done again.
With water taps its lime scale build up under the top and as many people do
not turn off the tap firmly soon you need a good clean up or a lot more
strength to clean out the lime scale.
If you do not do the check it tends to start to drip in the middle of the
night and with us all on meters that can be expensive.

Will we be doing any of the following:

Press the buttons on our TV Remote really hard if it doesn't do what we
want?

After locking the car with the remote, walk round and give each door 3 or
4
pulls of the door handle?

Use a Krooklock on our car despite it having an immobiliser and deadlocks?

Give the taps an extra turn to the off position every time we go near the
sink.
