I was working beautifully until yesterday when it stopped rising unexpectedly. I will describe the control unit: The buttons are small squares mounted on a rectangular black box. Green is up, red is down. Next to the buttons are 2 very tiny round flat buttons and 2 tiny lights. One button is labled “Viewing Position” and when pressed the light turns yellow. The other button is labeled “Remote” and has a red light. There is a small green "Power" light to let you know that the unit in plugged in. There also appears to be a remote control wire sensor, but I don't have the original remote. Previously, the yellow light next to the "Viewing "Position" button would come on when the button was pressed, and I was able to set the exact height at which I wanted the lift to rise. Now (following the last time the lift was lowered all the way down into the cabinet), the lift does not move, and the yellow light does not come on when I press the viewing position button. When I unplug the unit, the yellow light flashes once, and when I plug it back in, it does the same, but there is no response when pressing either the up or down button (no motor sound, even thought the power light is on). I thought that maybe the viewing position set feature might be malfunctioning and is set to the lowest position which might be why the lift won't rise. I am trying to find a universal remote to operate the lift so that maybe I can override the manual buttons. Any suggestions from any of you electronics wizards would be most gratefully appreciated.
