Title: SH624 Quit working properly **Anyone out there w/ a working system???
Post by: lynnymoore on September 06, 2006, 09:52:45 AM
The SH624 worked fine the first day!

The next day it started lighting two different lights when I turned on a lamp module instead of the one I pushed.
I turn a lamp off and another one turns on then off a few seconds later or sometimes stays on altogether.

While one of my lights will not turn on at all now...no matter what I do.

It's not like a have a lot of them. This is three lamp modules I am talking about. I even took all the windows and doors offline thinking they were complicating matters. Nada.

I assumed a lot about this system it seems. Is anyone out there successfully using the x10 system in their home for security and automation? If so, what's the secret?

I am starting to get upset since I just spent a bundle of money on this.

I am! For almost 30 years...  ;D
