Garage door opener remote
Having bad luck trying to find the replacement remote for our Overhead Door
system, led me to try and adjust the quirky one giving trouble. It is a single button type with a tuning slug which I got working after spraying the board with Static solution for pc boards. The slug is rather loose and needs readjustment often not holding its position. Sometimes a sizeable turn is needed to get the damn thing to work. What would you think of putting a thread glue on it? Suggestions are welcome. -- Bill W. |

Remember in the old (Ancient) radios, a very fine piece of thread with a
bit of Bees Wax slid down along side the slug, then gingerly retune the slug, melt a bit more wax over it to secure it. Actually paraphane or candle wax may also work except for the fact it may become very soft when in the auto on a hot summer day. Otherwise, maybe a bit of slow curing crazy glue, once you have the slug in position it probably will not be adjustable again, without a bit of fingernail polish remover fluid being applied. I personally would try for a fine piece of thread alongside the slug, then secure it once the fiddling is done. Good Luck. "Bill" wrote in message . ..
