I have managed to repair the Irritrol junior max controller. The problem was just 2 dry joints along the 24 volt line.
This is caused by internal overheating which softens the soldering in the nearby tracks.
best advise I can offer is 'switch off the supply to the 24v transformer if the controller is not going to be used for a prolonged period'
By the way, after contacting the local suppliers with the original problem, they offered me a replacement unit free of charge, so I will stick with Irritrol for many, many more years
