Hi, long time reader, first time poster!

I've obtained an old Martin Magnum 1000 smoke machine for my school. The only problem is when I plug it in it just pumps out loads of smoke at the maximum output until we turn it off at the mains. Useful for doing a pre-show wash of smoke but useless for anything else! Stupidly I agreed to try and repair it!!

I'm pretty sure the problem is with the connection on the remote (5 pin DIN timer remote) though I'm not 100% sure. I'm planning to buy a new remote regardless because the nobs have fallen off it. I've been searching through Google and looking on ebay ect. but have been unable to find a new timer remote for this model or even just a 5 pin DIN lead on its own that is compatible.

Has anyone got any idea of where I can find one or has anyone got any suggestions of other problems that there could be with this machine?

Many Thanks

Luke Swaffield
