Aircon IR Sensor - resolved

A follow up post to the problem I described.

I received several replies offering solutions since the post went live. One of them, from Mr Quek, a genius in my opinion, suggested I plug the board back and try again. He seemed to be confident of some loose connections causing the problem. I did try to fiddle around with the connectors the night I dismantled the circuit board. But you know what? He is right!!! That confirmed that he is indeed a genius!

Thank you, Mr Quek!

Wong, after over fifty years working in electronics I wish I had a nickel for every board or component that was 'bad' when removed and worked when plugged back in. When stationed on Guam the tubes in the multi-couplers would 'fail' after 3 months. I started checking the failed tubes and they were ok. So we started just pulling them out of the socket and plugging them back in.It was a problem because there were hundreds of tubes in them, quite costly to replace every three months in stead of 18 months the normal life of vacuum tubes.
