Service and Repair
If your system malfunctions, you should attempt to correct or isolate the
trouble before concluding that the equipment needs repair. Make sure you have
followed the setup procedure and operating instructions. Check the
interconnecting cables. We strongly recommend that you do not try to repair
the equipment yourself and do not have the local repair shop attempt anything
other than the simplest repair. If the repair is more complicated than a
broken wire or loose connection, send the unit to the factory for repair and
service. Don’t attempt to adjust any controls inside the units. Once set at
the factory, the various controls and trimmers do not drift with age or
vibration and never require readjustment. There are no adjustments inside that
will make a malfunctioning unit start working. LECTROSONICS’ Service
Department is equipped and staffed to quickly repair your equipment. In
warranty, repairs are made at no charge in accordance with the terms of the
warranty. Out-of-warranty repairs are charged at a modest flat rate plus parts
and shipping. Since it takes almost as much time and effort to determine what
is wrong as it does to make the repair, there is a charge for an exact
quotation. We will be happy to quote approximate charges by phone for out-of-
warranty repairs.
Returning Units for Repair
For timely service, please follow the steps below:
A. DO NOT return equipment for repair without first contacting us by e-mail or
by phone. We need to know the nature of the problem, the model number and the
serial number of the equipment. We also need a phone number where you can be
reached 8 A.M. to 4 P.M. (U.S. Mountain Standard Time).
B. After receiving your request, we will issue you a return authorization
number (R.A.). This number will help speed your repair through our receiving
and repair departments. The return authorization number must be clearly shown
on the outside of the shipping container.
C. Pack the equipment carefully and ship to us, shipping costs prepaid. If
necessary, we can provide you with the proper packing materials. UPS or FEDEX
is usually the best way to ship the units. Heavy units should be “double-
boxed” for safe transport.
D. We also strongly recommend that you insure the equipment since we cannot be
responsible for loss of or damage to equipment that you ship. Of course, we
ensure the equipment when we ship it back to you.
