Problem with 003 Rack Aux In Button

[jalani_music]

The 'Aux In' button/light on my 003 Rack keeps switching on and off by itself. When on (lit), I can't switch it off, and vice versa. I'm using PT LE 8.0.5, OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard. I recently unplugged my gear for a few weeks while I remodeled my studio. When I connected it back up, the problem started. I've done the firmware update (twice), checked connections, changed inputs, etc. and nothing's helped. I've had the unit for about ten years...never had a problem. Couldn't find anything about this problem in the forums, or anywhere else. Any advice?

I'm currently having a similar issue with the Digi 003 Factory console. When I turn on the 003 with nothing else connected expect the power into the wall, the aux-in button will click on and off intermittently having not even touched anything.

I spoke with an electronics repair person over the phone and explained the symptoms and he said that it sounded like the aux-in switch was failing and if so, would need to be replaced.

To try and diagnose further, I pressed the Utility button and selected Test/Buttons. The aux-in button was being intermittently triggered without pressing anything and the test display blinked "Aux In - Region 015 - Switch 013".

Did you ever resolve the issue you were having and if so, how?

Has anyone else experienced similar issues? Fixes/suggestions?

Thank you!

some things to consider:
#1-you dredged up a 3-year old thread(not sure if that helps or hurts)
#2-the 003 is past its expiration date and is probably not worth the cost of repair(unless you can get the part and replace it yourself)
#3-is it stuck ON or stuck OFF? If its stuck OFF, what are you wishing it would do?(Maybe there's other solutions besides repairing or replacing it)
