Question....2 X Delkim plus but alarms white/blue led

[Hurgen Akindji]

Hi all.
Wanted to put these up for sale but thought I'd get your advice first.

I think the connectors have corroded. Apart from that in really good condition.
Don't have a clue about how to go about replacing the connectors.
Does anyone have any experience with these?
Also how much would they go for?
Thanks in advance

If you go on Amazon, you can buy a pair of connectors for £2.75. It is then a case of soldering the new ones in. There are similar alarms on eBay starting at £40.00.

Exactly as Nigel said above, easy job if you can solder a set on. If not just knock a tenna off your price and let it be the new owners problem.

Appreciate the response guys.
Thanks

If you don't fancy replacing the connectors, you can remove the corrosion by sprinkling baking powder on the affected area then dabbling the baking powder with a cotton bud tip dipped in lemon juice or vinegar, then clear it off with an old toothbrush. It does work! I did it with a TV remote that had corrosion on the terminal.
Regarding price, I bought an unused same alarm as a spare for £50 last year.

Cheers mate. Forgot about the baking powder+vinegar combo.
I'll give it a go
