I swapped back to the original X10 version and the lights all work as expected.  I'll pull the resistors and diodes off to test them I suppose since I like to know why things die, but they are fairly cheap so I'll either keep the installed unit or pick up a new one.  Repair is not really worth the effort at $8 shipped.

I bought a new computer and it is windows 11 , the software run well on the computer BUT I dint find any of the four USB3 port which can be used
ANY idea are welcome
Thanks

After all these years, I have to give up. My wife just can not cope with the X10 system anymore.
I have been with X10 from the late 70's and have installed thousands of units all over Phoenix.
She gave away 4 boxes when I was out of town - ALL new items.. dam..
I still have several new and used items including -  2 WM100 units, 1 new   1 used and working. As well as a paired units of XPTT and XPTR Used.

https://store74086253.company.site/products/ I will have the items there tonight.

if this not permitted, I am sorry.. Just let me know Dellbert@akeene.com

thx

I dug out my original XPT push button plate.  The currently installed one doesn't reliably trigger button 3 off anymore.  Are the capacitors you replaced like the ones on this one?

This was several years ago, but it was a large film capacitor that connected directly to the AC input.  It was probably either .1uF or .22uF.

More recently another Leviton 4-button keypad failed.  Initially one of the LEDs was dimmer than the others.  Then after a week or so the LEDs started flickering and none of the buttons worked anymore.  I thought an electrolytic had deteriorated, but the DC power supply seemed fine with no significant ripple and power to the chip was fine.  So I don't know what caused the failure.  I just swapped in a spare unit.

If the ws467 was made after 2007 and the others are before the change.
https://kbase.x10.com/wiki/Newer_Wall_Switches_and_Preset_Dim
It has soft start and preset dim.
In the later CM15A software. There are two drop down lists for those modules.
Lamp Modules are soft start and before soft start for the older ones.
You may have chosen the module from the incorrect list.
Is the RF through the CM15A or a transceiver in a different location?
Jeff has some great troubleshooting tutorials. If you have not seen them yet.

I have 5 WS467's in my house all programmed to the same X10 code through my CM15A. 4 of the 5 work properly with a turn on and night and turn off in the morning.  One however is intermittent. It ALWAYS works with the RF remote and when connected to the PC, but not on it's own. All 4 turn on fully when triggered by the remote, but this particular one ramps up to full brightness every time. I have change the switch with a new one and same result. What causes the difference in turn-on brightness and is it related to not always working properly in the morning or evening?
Any ideas?

The previ[us image was from the X10 plate. This one is for the Leviton unit which has the LED indicators.  I dont use button 4 so I'm not sure if the issue is overuse of 4 off or one of the other components but changing the capacitor looks easy enough to try.

Will do. Thanks again

Just get a cheap one that's 2.4G only and set it up with a unique SSID.
