soistalker Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 (edited) My Yashima air conditioner remote control isn't really working. It keeps turning off. I went to Tukcom, but they don't have a copy or an original. The guy at the night market on Theprasset does not have it. Does anyone have an idea where I can get one?

moonseeker Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Power Buy, at the back service/cashier desk they sell generic programmable Universal remotes. They usually work on all brands, not too difficult to set, just follow instructions exactly. Or here: http://www.lazada.co.th/37813431.html?spm=a2o4l.category-031104000000.0.0.D7tnxI&ff=1&sc=EZcV Or on Pattaya Nua, few hundred meters down towards beach from 3rd. Rd. you pass a big aircon contractor shop, can't miss and there u get those and originals on order. More money than on Lazada. Good luck.

VocalNeal Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Is Yashima the model of the AC. There will be a label on the bottom of the unit. OR the model of the remote? Have you replaced the battery and given the battery terminals a good clean? I do not see Yashima as a code on any of the remotes on offer. While the remote is still functioning buy a remote that "learns" or a "learning" remote. That way you can still use the old one to program the new one. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Worlds-First-Universal-Learning-AC-A-C-Remote-Control-Copy-Remote-Codes-Fast-/222166661779 If all else fails and as it is broken already. Buy a can of lighter fluid , pop the remote open and using an old toothbrush and some Q-Tips give it a good clean. It might just be a sticky "off" button?

No, but many now have a USB-OTG connector to which this IR remote transmitter for $6.39 can be connected. Add in the free app, ZaZaRemote and you can control thousands of AC units. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/Universal-IR-Appliances-Wireless-Infrared-Remote-Controller-Adapter-Zazaremote-for-OTG-Android-Mobile-for-Samsung-Google/32705636748.html?spm=2114.search0104.3.2.UliR5B&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_3_10152_10065_10151_10130_5490020_10068_10344_10342_10343_10340_10341_5560011_5550020_10307_10137_10060_10155_10154_10056_10055_10054_5470020_10059_100031_10099_5460020_10338_10339_10103_10102_440_10052_10053_10107_10050_10142_10051_10324_5380020_10326_10084_513_10083_10080_10082_10081_10178_10110_10111_10112_10113_10114_143_5570011_10312_10313_10314_10078_10079_10073,searchweb201603_11,ppcSwitch_5&btsid=fa429a5a-642b-467c-8700-30f79342b149&algo_expid=0f37bffc-f50d-4ce6-afe8-a889d7522e82-0&algo_pvid=0f37bffc-f50d-4ce6-afe8-a889d7522e82 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He used to go into the local food court and change the channel on the public TV. Used to upset quite a few especially if the football was on.

wpcoe Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Universal remotes do not work on all air cons. Most but not all. My generic non-labeled air con with some flavor of Mitsubishi compressor couldn't be controlled by either of the "universal" remotes I bought.
