orbit facial lamp question - tanTALK

manbeer · 03-09-2014, 09:22 PM

anyone who is fairly well versed in these beds have any idea about adding a facial on/off switch in a bed not previously equipped with one? I have a parts orbit and my main unit, neither of which have one but the unit I am using has a cutout for one behind the label. also future was sold out of the two hole decals so mine has markings for facial. when I pulled out the panel it looked as if there may be some wires jumped together under heat shrink from the factory. anyone know if its a plug (or solder) and play operation of if something else would need to be done? also is it a momentary switch like the start button or more like the fan switch? wondering if I can scavenge any from the parts bed downstairs. thanks!

For starter you can cut the wire and alway splice back together , to see if this is for the facial you are looking for if so add the switch and you r on your way.

Yeah I will probably just end up giving it a shot, going to try lining up a replacement switch from Future as i think that I need an on/off style not a high/low/off type. The wires are right where they should be for that switch so it HAS to be for it.

Remember that these facials will not turn back on once they are turned off until they cool down.
