Why would my reciever, using the AC adaptor, work in the house but not in the garage?

If the receiver is plugged in, it should work anywhere. If you continue having issues, please send us a private message and we are happy to assist you.

The AC had nothing to do with the antenna. Your radio feeds the antenna. You just need to add some metal or buy one of the adapters.

It works fine in my home. I have one electrical panel, thus all the common wires are served from one source which is what makes it work. It would work to a detached garage as long as its wiring is from the home's electrical panel.

There are three wires from the back of the receiver to the motor drive. #1 is green and may be a ground. There are an additional 3 wires running from the tabs on the front of the unit that go to the wall switch. The wall unit in our garage is also programmable and I really don't know what that's all about. I just swapped the new receiver for the old, and lucked out in that they were identical.

Same thing happened to me. However, I was able to buy an adapter from Radioshack. It is an Enercell AC Adapter cat. no. 273-313. I also had to replace the original rechargeable batteries. The more time goes on with this radio, the more I regret purchasing it. Well, good luck!

You probably already tried this, add power to the adapter. it only works when it has power.

Mine works from a room away fine, but it won't go from one side if the house to the other.

If you had a plugged in device in the garage it would bridge the signal to the rest of the house. You only need to be close enough to the next device on your network. So maybe you put a plug in light somewhere or appliance link or something that is wired in. The wired part will use signal over powerline to get the message to other devices in the house.

I didn't have any issue with the power, though I used a power condition unit to regulate the incoming AC power to provide constant good power in. I would hear some clicking sound from time to time, but the receiver working just fine. Hope this will help.

The hookup is a simple two wire plug. You could probably make an adapter that you could plug into receivers and then to the existing wiring. I would check and make sure it is isolated from any outside wiring or you would probably lose you signal because of too much wire. I think it would work.

Try checking any fuses between the hookup and the reciever. Also be sure that the receiver didn't get wet. Mine got wet and stopped working and I had to order a new kit.

You need to make sure that the TED receiver is plugged into an outlet that's on the same phase as the breaker. Try plugging it into different outlets in your house.

The amp has a transformer which is plugged into an AC outlet. When I unplugged it, I did not get signal.

You have to plug it in-between the suspected noise device and the rest of the house wiring. I had to buy multiple of these to fix my problem because I had several items that caused interference. Common culprets for noise are the newer big screen TVs, newer refrigerators, space heaters, UPSs, and similar devices. Don't use the pass through plug on the interface. Use the filtered one on the bottom.

Hopefully your receiver has the crossover in it, if not, get a passive crossover and put it between the receiver and center channel.

Mine is the same way. I just run the connection from the reciever to the top connection on the sub. Works great, as the sub signal is not stereo.

I had similar problems. I plug the reciever into one of the ports on the front of my computer and the problems went away. It looks like the range is not that far. At least that was what it was for me.
