Resmed Airsense 10 Error 006 - lanecito - 11-03-2024
I was given an almost unused Resmed 10 which is a spare for my Resmed 10 of 3 year's use. When I checked it yesterday I got "Error 006." Since I live in the Republic of Panama with high heat and humidity, I wonder if the control card has become contaminated with mold as happens with cameras and lenses here.
In any event, it looks like I will have to ship my machine to the states for repair. Can anyone offer recommendations or insights? Thanks

If a 3 year old ResMed 10 is working fine despite having had more exposure to the climate, why would another ResMed 10 which is newer, fall victim to mold? I think you'd need a lot of humidity to have mold short circuit a new circuit board. Blower motors are pretty easy to replace if you are at all handy (good Youtube videos) and cost about $100, so maybe DIY it.
ResMed says:

Supplier #27 and Supplier #28 both have good reputations for repairs.
I have used Supplier #27 and they did a good job for me. As I recall it was a one week turn-around from receiving it, repairing, and shipping back.
