I bought the Woods Remote control outlet for the shop. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001Q9EFUK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Used it once and left it in my pants pocket and it went through the washer/dryer.
Now the remote stays on. The off button temporarily turns the remote light off but as soon as you let go it goes on again.
Looking at the PCB for the remote control, there is evidence of trauma to the PCB copper tracing leading to one of the chip pins:
Kind of weird that there would be a gouge there because the remote case was still intact. The copper is clearly peeled back, though.
Here are broad views for perspective.
Would an application of solder work to bridge the gap or other suggestion from electronic gurus?
Whole thing cost $11 so this is an exercise in not being wasteful vs futility.
