Hey Everyone
I recently brought a TM 5402 M3 for myself (for a guest bedroom) having brought my Technomates in the past for my Bros and Sisters and Family in general.
So Anyways I brought it on ebay but unbeknownst to myself and to the 6 other buyers that brought the other "like new" receivers that the private seller was selling they were all defective as they all complained on the feedback.
initially i thought it was the plug's fuse but 3 plugs later i came to the conclusion that it was the Power board inside the TM5402 M3.
I telephoned Technomate and they told me to send them the box but as I am in Ireland and the costs of both sending it there, them fixing the power board and having them send it back to me wouldn't be financially worth the bother.
I own about 9 Technomates (8 work, 3 in continuous use and 5 in attic storage), I know it wouldn't be possible to swap the power board from a TM 6900HD, TM 7100HD or a TM 8000HD because the power boards on them are larger and the screw holes on the board are different compared to the TM5402 M3's but would it be possible to swap a power board from any old TM 1000-5000 Series because for me i see this as a better alternative and money saving too
Thanks in advance for whatever help I will get!
