Remote control for Aircon or TV
« on: March 06, 2017, 10:23:34 AM »
Just thought I'd post this info, as every house has probably 4-6 remote controls sitting on a table somewhere. Eventually they all die. Where to find replacements in a hurry ?

Last week I had 2 remote control units stop working. 1 x LG aircon, and 1 x LG TV

I believe remotes can be repaired, but I don't know where. What the heck ... just buy 2 new ones. I'll just eat rice for another week.

In M.Buriram, the electric store just east of Bangkok Bank in Thanon Tanee had what I wanted.

They had the exact same aircon remote, but the TV one was slightly different. Shop lady was super nice and said if it doesn't work, bring it back and try another one.

Both new remotes worked fine. Prices were silly cheap. Much cheaper than Internet stores.

Aircon remote was 250 baht. TV remote was 130 baht.

Shop had a cabinet full of various brand name remote controls, not just LG as in my case.

I've attached a map of the electrical store. It's marked with a red X in a circle.

I'll second that. I needed a new power cord for rice pot. They stock them. Had no idea there were so many different plug shapes/sizes. She suggested one and said bring it back if it does not fit. It didn't. She happily exchanged it for one that fit. No problem.

I send many customers to Siri Electronics for many electrical items. Easy store for expats who do not speak Thai if you speak English with the woman owner. It is across the street from one of the very best Veterinarians in Buriram.  Another shop for remote controls at fair prices is the TV repair shop very near the Clock Tower at the Buriram Railroad station.

Yet another source of genuine OEM parts for major and small appliances in Buriram is "W J Electric". This busy authorized repair center for Hitachi air conditioners, appliances, Panasonic air conditioners appliances, and Toshiba air conditioners and appliances is near the NEW April 2017 location of Roma Pizza Restaurant.  Between the Elephant Monument Round About and the  Bridgestone Firestone Cockpit Tire Dealership on Highway 288.

The translation of the Russian does not seem to fit in with the thread.  Maybe it needs to be deleted.

Took bit longer than expected but went to Siri Electronics today. Very helpful and good services. Also seem to be reasonable prices. Excellent. Thanks for the tip.

Just thought I'd check out the speaker I bought on Lazada and pleasing to see that Siri was a few hundred baht cheaper than the cheapest Lazada seller.
