Re: Does my BCR2000 sound like it's broken?

2012-01-03 by Freaking Wildchild

Hi, 

Best care tips : 

 - eventually remove the side panels for easier access
 - get yourself compressed air; like they got in diving bottles
 - blow away all dust and dirt 
 - use teflon on the outside / contact spray on the inside
 - do not use contact-spray in excessive amounts
 - let dry for a few hours

After this maintenance; your buttons might be working again. 

If not; there might be a soldering which went bad or a button not making contact as it should.

With friendly regards,

Gunther / Freaking Wildchild.

I think that it probably is broken but I wanted to check here to see what other people thought.
