Bc2000 (for the BCF2000 & BCR2000)

Hi, 
I have seen this problem a couple of times and have cured it by resoldering  the components and connections on the power board because of the way the boards are soldered it is easy for component to have cracked the solder between it and the printed circuit, they are extremely difficult to see, take care and re wet the solder joints and it should solve the problem, my own was a second hand dead unit that just needed resoldering.
Hope that helps
