Author Topic: CP-65 selector switch won't stay selected Michael Rourke Expert Film Handler Posts: 159 From: San Luis Obispo, Central Coast of CA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 08-26-2002 12:43 PM                     When the DTS or SRD kicks in I watch the processor switch from A to Dolby digital for a split second and then jumps back to A because it is set up as the back up for loss of digital. When I manually press the digital button I have to press down and in so the button stays stuck in the selected position. Do I need to solder a new button into the processor or would contact cleaner fix my problem? Thanks, Mike  |  IP: Logged Adam Martin I'm not even gonna point out the irony.

Does it "let go" if you disconnect the automation wire?  |  IP: Logged Karen Hultgren Master Film Handler Posts: 492 From: Agoura Hills, CA, USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 08-26-2002 06:08 PM                        First try unplugging the DTS player's AUTOMATION connector to see if that frees the button. If it does, please send me an email. If it does not, then try unplugging the automation. If that does not help, give Dolby a call. Karen at DTS khultgren@dtsonline.com  |  IP: Logged
