Nice, you can say you did the repair in just one sitting 😁

Great video. (I thought Mrs Video99 would change her mind once she used it. LOL). Technicaly it is audio/video equipment. It has a display and it talks. :)

The video gives the impression that there is now no more space for an AMPEX VR 2000.

Amazing how one cheap component can kill such an expensive piece of kit, certainly not service friendly, but I bet you are pleased you got it, I would end up living in that chair!

Nice job. I have achey joints, so I might pop in to Massage99 next week to get them sorted :).

Great video, hopefully it'll be in KZread to help others with similar problems with this same chair.

Really enjoyed this video, glad the chair is being appreciated again intead of ending up in a tip! I found seven (old type) pound coins in the cabinet of an arcade machine I bought, felt like a win and made my day, despite being a fraction of what the machine cost!

Reminded me a little of that scene from the film 'East is East', where Mr Khan brings home an old barber's chair from't market! And nice work; some excellent fault-finding here :)

£1.20 up, free very expensive professional massage chair, and a happy wife. Remember when I said your solar installation was the shrewdest investment you'd ever make? Well the very next week this free massage chair has usurped it and the video was fantastic too. And don't think we missed the cheeky smile as you faced the camera when Mrs Video99 wasn't quite sure what to expect as it was turning her upside down!

Actually you can rule out the motor part of it as it seems to be galvanically decoupled by relays and optocouplers. BTW the budget version of measuring low resistances it to use a current limited source and just measure the voltage. This will also eliminate contact problems.

Component level repair is an admirable skill.

Hey bud great vid

Awesome!

Nice fix.I noticed the wire colour code pin number follow the resistor colour code

I'm really surprised you didn't express any concern for getting blown up by those HUGE caps!

They certainly commanded some respect. This massage chair is still working.

Very entertaining, "What are you collecting now?" Says the wife.

Get yourself a mini ratchet socket set with extension bars that takes Phillips bits , saves you using pipe grips

sooo cool congrats on the chair the fix, and surviving the mrs lol

Our neighbour's builder had a suitable van, but it was a squeeze even in that.

Well done colin i'm really happy for you :-D, it was worth the effort and your wife likes it 5 stars :-D I wonder if a roaming coin shorted a 5v line to say 12v, instant zenna short. Maybe the rip in the seat back allowed money to go down into the underworld lol.

Hi, my massage chair recliner not working and suggestions for me

I was given a massage chair, an older model Blue relax. I googled and can't find anything online. When I plug in no light turns on battery pack and remote not working. Do you know what kind of repairman could check this in PA?

haha yes, "electronic fault" can be a bit of a challenge. Might just be a fuse XD

Everyone assumed it would be "just the fuse". Of course it virtually never is.

The tip, maybe? Your wife is funny 😃

Nice work. I had the same isue on this chair but after a while came another message: safety switch activated code=008. Any thoughts?

I sometimes get safety switch 006 errors. Use the joystick to isolate which motor is affected, 006 is needing motor. I suspect the problem is servo motor feedback wiring but there is no available service information. Gaining access to motors means a lot of dismantling and I've not yet dared to devle deeper as my error is only intermittent. Is yours permanent?

It is permanent. Occurs right after the main switch is turned on . Tried to disconnect everything from PCB leaving only remote. All the same. I think problem is there on PCB Replaced some parts on high voltage part which looked suspicious. . No result. Have no idea how to check 5vdc circuit .All z diodes are ok. And where that safety switch can be placed?

​@video99couk I was just given this same massage chair. It won't turn on and on the power circuit board where I should be getting 5v I'm only getting 2.5v and suggestions on whats wrong?

Great score. Surprised a corporation would give it to you for free. They are always afraid of liability.

We've added a blanket to slightly soften the effect, and she tried some of the gentler programmes, so she does appreciate it.
