Raining all weekend so it's project-palooza. The touchless controls for my stove hood were going wonky so I ordered a new control set. What they sent didn't work so I took the button box apart and cleaned it (lot of oil) and it started working. But not working.
Control box not mounted, held in your hand
Springs work fine
Button plate works fine. In fact button plate you can get your finger close but doesn't touch a button and it actuates on and off
Box mounted, that is held in place in the hood
Springs (no button plate) don't work
Buttons don't work
Box just touching the hood, nothing works
It's a plastic box.
Any ideas? Seems very odd.
New controls on top, old with separate button plate below. No idea what the circuit board is for, I don't have one.
Holding my old control box. Only springs. Works fine.
With the plate, works fine
Held in place in hood. No button plate. Doesn't work. I started the fan at level 1 before holding it up.
Just holding the box against the underside of the hood. Doesn't work.
