I would check the battery contacts on the cell. It is possible that the batteries you are using are not making contact with the positive side. try rocking the battery out and checking the needle. If the cell works when connected with the "red" stop wire the problem is definitly with the battery connection. Also, try to clean out the din plug socket that the activation cable plugs into. these have a habid of getting corroded. The new ALGE RLS1n cell overcomes the corrosion problem by replacing the din plug activation cable with a switch. In a pinch you can disassemble the cell and attach the blue wire that is soldered to the shell of the din socket directly to the black ground wire on pin 3.
The small hole to the right of the battery door is an access point for the potentionmeter that controls the cell delay. Turn it clockwise to increase delay and counterclockwise to decrease.
