Newark Electronics is a major supplier of electric parts and components to the electric repair industry. They may be based in New Jersey. Relays are truly penny items. What is most important are the various values and standards. Best Wishes In a message dated 7/23/2014 9:20:54 P.M. Central Daylight Time, lwillis82...@gmail.com writes:
Good point. I think I'll find someone adept at soldering boards and take it from there. It just irks me that they quit supporting the lift with so many of them still out there. Who or what is Newark Electronics? I can live without sarcasm.

Only a relay switch. There is a good chance that an electric shop can obtain a new relay and solder it to the board for you. Where do you think Braun got their relays from? Newark Electronics?

They diagnosed my problem as a bad relay switch on the circuit board. The switch is embedded so the obvious solution is a new circuit board. Guess what? The part was discontinued earlier this year by Braun. Their solution -- a new lift for $7000. I just bought this one from them two years ago for $3500. Any suggestions? Makes me want to scream.
