Thanks Chiu,
Yes nice idea, a new DS01 might solve the problem, but at ã450 iam afraid i\'ll have to live with replacing the ã2.95 speaker every couple of years. ( Not sure I will live another 300 years to recoup the cost saving
) Will look at your suggestion of the speaker touching the metal faceplate as a possible cause of failure.Pedro..
I presumed replacing the original paper coned speaker with a mylar one would solve the problem... clearly not. As Chiu states the speaker should be a 32ohm 1 watt. Just need the Diameter... do you have yours to hand to measure? I will take mine apart as soon as I get home..but won\'t be back till the weekend and was hoping to order a replacement so I only had to take it apart once. Just had a look on the net and having trouble finding 32ohm 1 watt speakers of any size and cannot remember where I sourced the last one.. Anybody got suggestions?

In my DP03 it is a 32 OHM 0.5 W 40mm, in my DP02 it is a 65mm 8 OHM 3 W showing part no. FE202M8NG.
Hope that helps, in the meantime I am going to see if I can make one good doorphone out of three bad ones

That is an 8 ohms speaker which is not trecommended. Look for a 32 ohms speaker

But that is what is in the DP02. As you say Comfort UK made these panels so presumably fitted a different speaker.

As I said we dont know what they put in there. It is not the correct rating for the door station.

Just for information I contacted Comfort Home Controls and they sent a replacement speaker in the post to me. What arrived was this unit:

In case anyone needs if for future reference they are available in stock from CPC.
Thanks!

Thanks Podro,
Will order a couple, didn\'t think they were 66mm. Presumably the reason they fail after 18 months is that they are only 8ohms as opposed to 32ohms. But seeing as I cannot seem to source a suitable 32ohm speaker and cannot afford a new door station, I will have to live with replacing them every 18 months or so.
