preamp remote won't work??

If it works like the Jeff Rowland models, you might want to read this thread. I got mine to work by holding a paper clip across both battery terminals inside the remote for a couple of minutes.

Really? What does that do. You mean you took out the batteries and just held a paper clip across both positives?
I just wondering if it is more commom for the remote to not work, or the sensor in the preamp itself.

I had a remote go on my pre (other brand), cost me $30 to replace.
