is there any logical reason that the cel might not work other than someone tampering with it ?
Not really no unless the bulbs has gone, As far as i can remember on the newage clocks you can not change the bulb from the rear of the clocks, You have to take them apart as they split into layers.

Might be worth just cleaning the cam sensor as i said this is a common code that the bug`s throw up and its not always down to a faulty sensor, Did he delete the codes? If he did you can get him to check again to see if they have come back, good luck.

you are correct mate ,there is no bulb ,just soldered board .im going to remove the clocks again tommorrow and have a better look for any cut wires etc .
i dunno if he reset codes mate as far as i know hes checking/cleaning all sensors on sat before he fits new ones ,hopefully i can trust his word for this
thanks for help
