It wasn't working for 1 year, it's working now. Thanks a lot...

Thank you SO MUCH for this! My thermometer didn't have the same problem yours had; the problem my thermometer had, was that it wouldn't switch on AT ALL! I thought I might as well give your video a try, before purchasing a new thermometer. I had an idea that the issue was due to a battery leak. I followed your instructions for opening the case, and what did I see? Although the 'motherboard?' was entirely clean; there appeared to be leaked battery fluid on the inner battery contacts (the inside of my model, is slightly different from your own, with one flat battery contact, running along the width of the device). I wiped this down, and reassembled the device; it is now WORKING PERFECTLY . THANK YOU so much for posting this, you have saved me some money, and prevented a savable device from ending up on the scrap heap!

Amazing! I’m such a noob and I managed to fix this on my own. Thanks to your video. It is super helpful. I just saved $100. 🎉

Amazing. I had sent my first one back under warranty. When it happened again I was so pleased to find this video. Even though there looked to be nothing wrong, it fixed it. I just used an alcohol cleaner.

Our Braun Thermoscan had totally stopped working, even when we put new batteries in. Followed Solomon’s 10 minute video, excellent detailed instructions that were easy to follow and wow! Fixed!! Thank you so much! 🤒

this thermometer has been sitting in storage for 6 years and I finally fixed it 😭 thank you

THANK YOU!! I fixed our Braun thermometer with your video! It's a different model, but worked just the same! I love the internet! :)

Thank you very much! I've seen oxidation on battery contacts before, but never on the circuit board. It never occurred to me to check there. Your video was very helpful. I don't have to waste money on a new thermometer now!

Watched your video and to my amazement it was exactly the same issue. Alcohol, qtip and a wooded toothpick allows me to use the thermometer again ! Thanks for saving me some money and stopping this device from the dump!

My 10 yr old Braun Thermoscan would turn on and off continously. I am happy I found the video before putting it in the garbage. Thank you sir, great video!

Thank you very much for the guide. I followed the steps and my Thermoscan is working again. $100 saved!

Thank you sooo much... this solution worked perfect for my Braun Thermoscan problem. Your video just saved me $100 😃 and saving the environment from receiving unnecessary electronic waste.

Totally worked. Saved me from Having to buy a new thermometer. Thanks!!!

My model was slightly different, same issue. Glad I found this fellow.

Thank you so much for this video!Very detailed and accurate.I have the same problem with my braun thermometer,got it fixed after watching ur video.But the color indicator remained Red.🤦🏻‍♀️😅

Awesome, fixed it and can now monitor the temp of my sick child. Big thank you, and the best tutorial with great humour too. Topman cheers

Thanks for the video, the plastic piece that makes contact with the thermometer switch broke on mine. Your video and some super glue got me going again!

It worked!! saved my $159 for a new one! Thank you so much for the video! But I coudn't find the LPS Micro-X off the shelf. Instead, i used a 70% alcohol wipe, and cleaned it carefully. Anyways, you've earned a subscriber!👍👍👍👍👍

Terrific advice, thank you. Didn't have contact cleaner, so used a Q-Tip on the contacts. Worked perfectly.

Thanks a lot. Didn’t work the first time. Then out of desperation, opened it again and wiped more thoroughly. And voila it worked like a charm. Thanks again!

I had a different issue in that the thermometer was reading too high but after disassembling I happened to notice what looked like a tiny hair on a square sensor below the ear part, but after removing this it started working correctly again. Thanks for the tips on disassembly - mine is butchered now from the screwdriver but at least it takes the temp! 👍

My contacts didn't look that bad, but this fix worked for me. The thermometer was flashing on and off, cleaning the contacts solved it.

My issue was different, temperature was too high all the time, and after a while I got a system error. But even though I couldn't find anything when disassembling, after I reassembled it started working properly again. So thanks for the disassembly instructions. They really helped.

Thank you so much, excellent presentation, you saved me buying another thermometer, best wishes

I had a flashing screen and taking the batteries out didn’t help. Slightly different model but basically the same disassembly and cleaning the corroded contacts fixed my problem too. Thanks!

Awesome! It worked for me! Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video and help so many people!

Great one! Was about throw our thermometer and it’s working now!

Thank you! I followed the instructions and was able to fix mine!

Thank you so much, my Braun ThermoScan can function again,so happy 😊

Thanks! I lost my newer one, and the 6022 wasn't turning on. Now it is!

Thanks a lot, I throw my first one and brought the second one with same problems, now it's midnight all the store closed, I really need it rightnow u method really works.

Hello Sir, May I ask you do you know why there is no beep sound?

this is bloody good and helpful!!! thank u for saving me $169!!! after days of searching and even contacting service center who said they dont service/repair here in Singapore without warranty my issue was the temp showing a higher reading than usual. so folks facing this issue, u just gotta try to wipe the dust off the small black square beneath the ear part. works! THANK U

Thank you this was very helpful, we are currently have this problem.

This really helped me as well, I have little different model IRT 4520 but problem was the same, thank you for the video :)

Thank you very much sir. I love all of your videos.

Mine is the same model. It shows an alternating oC and oF Set error code that is persistent despite attempts of pressing other buttons. Even after cleaning the internal electrical contacts, the thermometer buttons still do not respond. I guess it is totally spoilt.

@2:15 your screw is so much longer than mine, despite of the same model i am holding with me

Wow thanks!!!!!!!! I have spend so much money on this. Mine had a dog hair 😅😅thank you again Very useful tip

Amazing all I done was show my thermometer this video and what I was about to do to it and it started working again 😅, 🫡
