Attached: 2 images Just rejuvenated our TV remote by gently brushing powdered graphite on the button pads as shown here: https://youtu.be/SvVgDmW9zgQ Power button was totally dead before, and works like new after. Pretty quick and easy to do (hardest part was getting the remote open without breaking too many clips!) One of those "wish I'd known about this years ago" repairs... (Also gave the contacts on the PCB side a clean as they're very oxidised-looking. They don't look any different after, but doesn't seem to be a problem either. EDIT: and best not to mess with, see https://cathode.church/@s0/113615805807565960 ) #repair #electronics
