gregers Posted October 29, 2007 Report Posted October 29, 2007 have you followed the method on how to reprogram remotes in the technical section in faqs?and did you make sure that you have the correct coding for the remote(ie matching the one you have)? Quote
geoffc Posted November 1, 2007 Report Posted November 1, 2007 Easy to tell the two types apart! The infra red remote has a small hole at the front (next to the blade) an infra red led is visible through this. The radio type is identical, apart from having no hole at the front of the remote.The infra red remote can be tested by pointing at a webcam or digital camera....flashes will be visable from the infra red led. when a button is pressed. Hope this helps, Geoff Quote
