Is it still under warranty?   Sound like the button is bad
**Looking for the one that makes it all worthwhile**

JVB,
They try to be a little lenient about these things.  It sometimes helps if you are nice to them on the phone - just think about the number of Customers they speak with every day!

I can second that statement sugar goes much further than salt and hummingbird has honored my past warranty once before with Greg's advice.
