A remote controler is something that can be found in every household with kids, as their earliest hobby is watching cartoons on the LED. And obviously, where there are multiple kids, the remote control rarely survives. In the fight to grab the remote from each other, the poor thing often ends up broken or damaged. So, every few days, a new remote needs to be purchased. And in today's era of inflation, a good quality remote costs no less than 1000 Pakistani rupees.
For some days now, my LED remote was giving me trouble, and I had a feeling it was going to stop working soon. I had already prepared myself to spend 1000 PKR on a new one. And that's exactly what happened. This morning, the LED remote stopped working. At first, I went to the market, but couldn't find a good quality remote. And since there's a local remote with very quality so i left it and back home and decided to check the old remote myself.
And when I opened the remote, I saw that there was a light on the circuit (which transmits the remote's commands to the LED receiver through rays) and its point was broken. Then I took out my mobile repairing tools (soldering iron, solder wire, etc.)
Once the soldering iron was heated, I carefully removed the point where the light was attached to the circuit and disconnected the light from the circuit. Next, I used a blade to gently scrape away the oxidation from the circuit points, preparing them for soldering.
Then, I soldered the red and black jumper wires to both points of the light. And then, I connected both points to the circuit. Finally, I fitted the circuit into the remote's body, inserted the cells, and checked the remote using my phone's camera. I pointed the remote's light towards the camera and pressed the button, and a red light started blinking. This meant that the remote was now working properly.
And then, I turned on my LED using the remote, and it worked! In this way, I repaired the remote and saved my 1000 Pakistani rupees. Note: If your appliance's remote ever stops working, you can use this technique to make it usable again.
That's all for now, see you in the next post. Goodbye.
With Love 💕 @rashid001💕
With my father's slap, any out of order remote is one step away from getting repaired:)
Good Job Though👏

That must be very satisfying feeling when the equipment that stroke and did not work after repair can be used again. I feel sad when we have to get rid of something often new thing but not functioning. I remember in the past my father was able to repair his old cars with help of exchanging some little parts, but nowadays a lot if fused into one big parts and to replace the whole unit needs to be renewed and people loosing that skill and will of DIY. Well done!

Absolutely, you're right. Things from the past used to last a long time even after being repaired. And their repair was relatively easy. Now, most things are made in such a way that they can't be fixed once they're broken. But still, in Pakistan, many things can be repaired. We call it 'Jugaad'😊 in our language.
