Default MRT PTX stopped working

Any help advise appreciated,

I have a relatively new MRT PTX that has stopped working, it has the blue light on when powered up but during heats at my club it stopped working
I have been using this PT for a few months with no issues.

I have tried an alterative PT in the car and that works so rules out all other factors apart from the MRT PTX

Can they be reset or would it have to be sent back to the manufacturers ?

Cheers
Stu

Pretty sure it will need to go back, MRT have a pretty quick turnaround though!

Check the wires into a the pt as they rub sometimes and short on each other
If so they are easy to do if out of warranty, if u have a small tip for ur soldering iron just open the case cut wire bk a few mm and bang good as new
Also the power cap on the receiver is worth a try
Also check ur receiver if u have a spare swap them and try it again if still happens u rule out a duff receiver

As you have checked that it all works with another PT , it would seem that yours has developed a fault.... I would send it back... MRT are pretty good at repairs..
