(1/1)

miller:
Hi
the power on/off button on my sony m10 is not responding.
used to take various attempts to switch on/off and now not switching on.

does someone know if it is a known issue and if there is someone on board in Europe able to check it out against payment obviously?

I have one and it is slow to respond when turning off sometimes. On the one occasion that it failed completely I ended up pulling out the batteries.

anr:
It's one of the M10's vulnerable areas. Probably dirt/dust. Get some switch cleaner and spray it. Alternatively, a few drops of surgical spirit.  Then work it back and forward. Best of luck.

beatkilla:
i had one at one time that the spring behind the switch wore out.It still turned on but also would turn off easily if not gaffed into place.

earmonger:
You can also turn it on by plugging in the USB, and then leaving it on hold till you want to use it.

Mine stopped worked and I was doing that--but then it started again, so the suggestions above that it's a little mechanical thing are probably correct.
