The doorbell button should be available at any hardware store. According to the doorbell instruction manual "The diode part no. is IN4001. It is available at any electronic store" See: http://www.musicaldoorbell.com/MusicalDoorbellManual.pdf for a copy of the manual.

To all like Stan. First of all yes you do need the Diode. Also yes you can purchase it through Amazon.com for 10 cent. The Diode you need is 1N4001 or if this helps.http://www.amazon.com/1N4001-Diode/dp/B007V2LMMA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8

I would get the LED seperate from the air wand so if 1 goes out then you only have to replace that part...good luck!

I am about to find out! I need a new one...I am positive online would work and I do think I saw ones at Radio Shack...What about Wall Mart (online with them is also something to check)

Good information. I later emailed Panasonic about the question and they were kind enough to send me a replacement for free. When I got the new one I opened the old one and guess what? No circuitry at all inside. So it's taking the variable voltage straight out of the lighter socket. And I saw the malfunction... One of the solder joints had broke and made a disconnect. Duh.

I was told by Sentry if the lock fails, call a locksmith to cut the door off. Probably the same if electronics melt. I suggest U call Sentry

Since B&D; makes the opener I would contact them directly. I'm not familiar with the repair parts or process.

Just my opinion, and I am not an expert, but I would guess it would be pretty dangerous to do that, especially if you think there's any chance the circuitry is damaged. If it was a defect, I would contact the manufacturer, but if you made attempts to modify it, you're probably on your own and should buy a new one.

Okay, here's was my strategy. Replace them all. The complete lot of switches and fuses was $15. The heating element was $17. A service call in my area is $80 before parts. Simple math says . . .

No. It's not a lamp. It's an LED. There really should not be a need to replace it. If the diode fails then I suppose I would chase DeWalt for a replacement flashlight. If you are somehow wanting to change to a different circuit and LED, then surgery, maybe(?)

You can buy a new screw from any hardware store. However, the only screw is the one that holds the circuit board To the back base of the light. If you lost that it must have been disassembled .

Well it might be repairable as the components that were fried by the lightening strike could be replaced. The question would then be at what cost and are the components available. I think since the unit can be purchased for less than $1,000 the answer would be no as the cost of the repair and components would meet or exceed the cost of getting the unit repaired. Even getting it looked at will cost something even if only the power supply was the only part effected.

I bought two of these and they both had the same defect. With so many others who have had the same issue, I'd bet any new one will be cracked. If you really want to try to replace the bell, I would do a google search to see if you can find customer service info.

Sorry Julie, I haven't install my just yet. I don't believe I will have an issue, for most of theses doorbells are pretty standard. I would just contact an electrician for precise answers. However, I do like the doorbell when it came in.

I know im WAY behind yall, but that was the fix for mine, i just cut a small piece of plastic and stuffed it on top of that "door closed" switch inside the batery compartment and now when i shut the door, the switch is pressed... all fixed!!

as far as I know. WE just took two and replacedan old button and put a second one at a new door. Only thing that goes on in the button is the light and I guess that is probably an industry standard as far as the voltage goes,

Your best bet would be to go to a local electrical wholesale supplier. They would most likely have in stock. Take your broken one with you to match.

I have one button on the fringe of the operating distance so it only works occasionally. If the button does not work when it is near the door bell then it may have some bad contacts behind the button. I would ask Heath for a replacement button then.
