I plugged one of my recently aquired Homebase
AM12's in, having used many LM12's before.
I plugged a fan into it, which was the only
appliance that I had to hand. I turned it on and off a couple of
times
with my OFA.
Then whenever I pressed the ON button, the
AM12
clicked about three times, but didnt turn the fan on. I changed the
house
and unit codes but still the click and no on. I sent a few offs to
it,
then a few ons and no response (apart from the clicks). I even
plugged
lamps that I control with the LM's into it (know they wouldnt dim) and
still no
joy.
So I have - I assume - a dead AM12. I
was
surprised that it blew so quickly. Do they go often? I've heard
of
the relay contacts fusing with high loads. Or have I commited a crime
by
plugging a fan in?
I'm glad I bought it cheap from homebase
though,
should even get a replacement today.
