Earlier in the week I repaired a friend's receiver. This was also a mechanical problem, grease in the rotary selectors for source and volume control had become conductive so it has began to spontaneously changed source or wound the volume to maximum. Cleaning the grease out restored normal operation.
Too many things are thrown away when there is nothing much wrong with them.
#RepairReuseRecycle #repairyourown

A reasonably productive Sunday morning. I repaired Judy's hairdryers.
The newer one made a nasty smell and then completely stopped working a few days back. It turns out that a switch contact had burnt out. Cleaning out the switch and resoldering it the opposite way around (making use of two otherwise contacts that are otherwise never used) made it work like new.
The older one that replaced it worked but made a squealing noise, this just needed hair to be removed and a bit of grease applied to a bearing.
