Have Intermatic EJ500 timer. Light comes on ok and when it goes off the bulb does not turn off completely. It just dims. Try to turn it off with on off by pressing on off but to no avail.

If the light on your Intermatic EJ500 timer is not turning off completely, it could be due to a faulty relay switch or a loose connection. Here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:
  1. Reset the timer: Turn off the power to the timer, wait for a few minutes, and then turn it back on. This will reset the timer and may fix any issues that were causing the light to stay on.
  2. Check the wiring: Make sure all the wiring connections are tight and secure. If any of the wires are loose, tighten them with a screwdriver.
  3. Replace the relay switch: If the relay switch is faulty, it may need to be replaced. You can purchase a replacement switch and follow the manufacturer's instructions for installation.
  4. Check the light bulb: Make sure the light bulb is the correct wattage and type for the timer. If the bulb is not compatible, it may cause the light to stay on even when the timer is turned off.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, it may be best to consult a professional electrician or contact Intermatic customer support for further assistance.

My Tork timer goes on and off at the set pin times, but then it comes on in the evening when it's not supposed to?

If your Tork timer is turning on at times when it's not supposed to, there may be a few potential causes. Here are some things to check:
  1. Check the programming: Make sure the timer is programmed correctly and that you have set the correct on/off times.
  2. Check for stray signals: If your Tork timer is receiving stray signals from other devices, this could cause it to turn on or off unexpectedly. Try moving the timer to a different location, away from other electronics.
  3. Check the power source: Make sure the timer is receiving a steady power source. If the power is interrupted or fluctuates, it could cause the timer to malfunction.
  4. Check for interference: Interference from other electronics, such as nearby radios or TVs, could be causing the timer to malfunction. Try moving the timer to a different location or turning off nearby electronics to see if this solves the problem.
If none of these solutions work, it's possible that there is a problem with the timer itself and it may need to be repaired or replaced.

I need an instruction mannual for the le saucier with the automatic dial

Le Saucier is a kitchen appliance that is used to make fresh butter and other creamy sauces. Without knowing the specific model of Le Saucier you have, it is difficult for me to provide an instruction manual for the automatic dial. However, here are some general instructions on how to use the Le Saucier:
  1. Assemble the Le Saucier according to the manufacturer's instructions. Typically, this involves attaching the paddle and placing the machine on a flat surface.
  2. Pour the cream into the Le Saucier. The amount of cream needed will vary depending on the size of the machine and the recipe you are following.
  3. Set the machine to the desired speed and let it run. The automatic dial may allow you to set a specific speed or program, depending on the model.
  4. After a few minutes, the cream will thicken and eventually turn into butter. Once the butter has formed, stop the machine and drain off any excess liquid.
  5. Use a butter churn or cheese cloth to remove any remaining liquid and shape the butter into a desired form.
If you are still having trouble with your Le Saucier or need a specific instruction manual, I recommend contacting the manufacturer or searching online for a downloadable manual.

AMF Paragon TI Mite Timer - Model PLTI-O. How do you set the timer on it please?

Question edited for a lot more clarity. Question moved from Office Equipment to Timers. This timer has a fixed setting for turning on lights or appliances. To set the time, turn the small dial marked '8765' (which represent the hour when the lights will turn ON, so that the time you wish them to come on is next to the current time. In other words, if the current time is 6:00pm, and you want to have the lights come on at 8:00pm, set the 8 on the small dial next to the 6:00pm on the timer body, and plug everything in. ..

Would you please explain how to bypass the timer on a Smeg A2-2 Oven.

It is not recommended to bypass the timer on your Smeg A2-2 oven, as the timer is an important safety feature. However, if you still want to bypass the timer, here are the steps:
  1. Turn off the power to the oven at the main breaker.
  2. Locate the timer wires. In your case, there are 2 black pairs, 1 red pair, and a single white wire.
  3. Determine which wires are connected to the timer. These wires will be labeled "timer" or "clock."
  4. Cut the timer wires close to the timer unit.
  5. Strip the ends of the wires back about 1/2 inch.
  6. Twist together the wires that were previously connected to the timer.
  7. Cover the twisted wires with a wire nut.
  8. Wrap the wire nut and wires with electrical tape.
  9. Turn the power back on and test the oven.
Again, it is not recommended to bypass the timer on your oven, as this can be dangerous and may void your warranty. It is recommended to consult a professional technician or the manufacturer before attempting any repairs or modifications to your oven.

I have a Vigoro 4 zone water timer, and the battery housing was lost. Is there anywhere one can find those? I've search the internet with no luck

It looks like Vigoro does not sell replacement battery housings for their water timers. You may want to check with local stores or online retailers to see if they have the battery housing in stock, as well as third-party suppliers. Alternatively, you could consider investing in a new water timer with a different design that does not require a battery housing.
