The lift & lower actuator on a "medical" bed wasn't working, so I open the control box & noticed that one resistor(?) looks a bit rough, with some scorch marks beneath. On the reverse side of the board I saw that the solder joint was "broken". I took a gamble and re-soldered the joint, and the actuator now works but I would be more comfortable if the repair was more thorough.
The board is 24V after the mains in goes through a transformer. The resistor gets hot during operation, so not sure if this is the cause or the effect of a fault.
QUESTION: Is there any way to fix this without what will almost certainly be a criminally expensive replacement control box? I've Googled the board number but nothing comes up.
EDITED TO ADD: The MD7C seems to refer to the box - which is one of these. http://www.moteck.com/ProductDetail.asp ... ductId=242
