Rastar Bentley Gt Continental I have bought a kids ride on 12v car I bought a new battery fully charged it and plug it into the car I have power to everything except the pedal to control the wheel? The parent control remote does now power the wheel either as soon as I turn the car on a constant red flashing light is blinking on the circuit board any ideas how to repair it? Or where I can get a replacement part if required I’ve bypass the circuit board direct to the wheels and the work fine I’ve checked and double check all the connections and set up Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated I have one very disappointed boy! I’ve bought the car second hand so have no manual or know who it was bought from the condition of the car is immaculate and was told by the lady it was hardly use just needed a new battery I’ve no reason not to believe her as the car is like new Cheers Chris

SOURCE: Yamaha RX-V793 flashing light on volume control and no volume

Per Yamaha support page: The volume light on my Yamaha AV receiver is flashing, what does this mean ? The "MUTE" function on your remote control has been activated. The reason that you can still hear a very low sound is that the muting circuit within your stereo is not a full mute, but rather a -20dB mute. To deactivate the "MUTE" function, simply press the "MUTE" button on your remote control. (Make sure the volume control is turned down to avoid damage to your system.) If you misplace or lose your remote control, you will have to purchase a new remote control unit, as there is no duplicate function on the front panel of your stereo. Unplugging the stereo will not deactivate the muting circuit, as the microprocessor "remembers" if the muting circuit was active prior to being turned off or unplugged. If you need to purchase a remote control, you may order one directly from our parts office. You may reach them by dialing (714) 522-9888 from 8 am to 3 p.m. Pacific Time, Monday through Friday. If you have any other questions, please contact our customer service department by dialing (800) 292-2982 Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

You probably have the manual, but here's the link to the Scooba 5800 manual anyway - just in case this would be useful to you: --> http://www.irobot.com/images/homesupport/5800_Scooba_Manual.pdf You could use a voltmeter to check the battery, but only a few months use shouldn't be enough to wear it out. If you don't have a load-tester to verify the battery's load-capacity, then you can check the voltage drop. (Assuming you can get it to contact the Scooba's circuits.) To do this, just check the battery voltage, apply a load by inserting it in the machine and turning it on, then check the battery voltage again. An excessive drop in voltage may indicate the battery needs replacing. However, the red blinking light is Scooba's indicator that it doesn't detect the battery at all. The first thing to do in this case is to clean the electrical contacts on the battery and in the Scooba. Use a damp cloth and a bit of toothpaste to rub the contacts clean on the battery and in the machine. (Toothpaste has mild abrasives in it and will clean the electric contacts without damaging them.) Make sure that both the battery and the Scooba are clean and dry before re-inserting the battery. Also, if the electric contacts in the machine are flexible matal tabs then verify that the tabs are standing up high enough to make good contact with the battery contacts. Hopefully the battery just needs it's contacts cleaned for your unit to work, but test the battery if you are sure that they are clean and seated properly to the contacts in the machine. If the battery appears to be failing, then contact www.irobot.com to cheack and see if they are still covered under your machine's warranty. Hope this helps! :)

SOURCE: Toshiba 57H81 Flashing Red Power Light, Blown Fused F850+F852

Solved by resoldering some solder joints!!!!!!!
********
Toshiba Model 57H81 Rear Projection TV - Purchased 11-09-2001

Problem: Toshiba 57H81 Flashing Red Power Light, No Picture/Sound, Blown Fuses F850 + F852

Symptoms January, 2009:

• Upon turning on set I got flashing red power light and nothing else.
• Removing plug for one minute and plugging in results in:
• Audible click, steady red power light for 2 seconds then slow flashing red light
• Pushing power button results in steady red for about 2 seconds then slow flashing red light, no other set activity
• Removing power cord for several hours and plugging back in made no change
• Audible click, steady red for about 2 seconds then slow flashing red light
• Possible related note: Over past several months occasionally the entire screen would flicker momentarily and at other times be problem free for weeks.
• Fuses F850 and F852 found blown

• PD0074 DEF/CON Power Board
• There are two main power supply capacitors in this set. They are C-809 and C-810. One their negative lead on the printed circuit board re-soldered leads and nearby contacts. I’m told that because the factory left out a printed circuit board eyelet, the connection will come loose over time. When I called Toshiba customer service they said there was a known solder joint problem causing blinking red light.
• Replaced blown fuses F850 and F852.
• I actually installed a fuse panel on the inside of the cabinet and routed the fuse connections here instead of ordering the special fuses and replacing them on the circuit board.
• Had to use a 5 Amp SLO-BLOW for F850. Fast blow does not survive power up. Get the red blinking light.
• Used a fast blow 2 Amp for F852.
• PD0073 SIGNAL Board
• Re-soldered Q751 + Q752 STK392-110 Convergence Amps
• Re-soldered adjacent pads that looks suspicious

• Twelve hours of my time over three days to research issue, disassemble set, make repairs, add fuse panel.
• Already owned Service Manual and Circuit diagrams from a different 2004 repair.
• Less than ten dollars at Radio Shack for fuses and fuse panel. Already had wires, etc.
• Some solder. Already owned de-soldering tools, etc.
• Visited both local authorized Toshiba factory service repair facilities. One said repair would have to include replacing Q751 + Q752 STK392-110 Convergence Amps with ST392-180, and realigning set for a total of $500+ and it would be more if they had to order a power board. NO THANK YOU! Other shop said $65 for site visit and $30 to make an estimate that could be applied to repair.

SOURCE: Need charging instructions for Air Hogs Havoc

1.Take out charging wires. 2.turn off your heli and insert charging socket into your heli's socket. 3.the charging green light will light up while charging. 4.charging complete, the green light will turn off. 5.pull out the wires and you are ready to fly. Let the heli's battery cool down for approx. 15 minutes before charging.
