Hello,

I've been using my Flextone III for about a year and a half now. Within the past several months, my amp will shut off, reset itself, and then continue. The sound will cut off, the amber lights will circle around the amp selector knob, and then the amp will come back on to 1 of the 4 channels but will not produce sound. The only way to get it out of this cycle is to shut the amp off and turn it back on. Initially, I was using an FBV2 footswitch and had no problems. I switched to an FBV Express and after about 3 months with that, this problem began occuring. I was able to play for roughly 20 minutes and then the problem would begin. Every time I shut the amp off and turned it back on there after, it just began the problem cycle again. When the footswitch is disconnected, the problem persists only briefly, but goes away eventually. I bought an FBV Shortboard MKII a few months later, figuring the problem had resolved itself. Sure enough, it has returned in the same fashion with the Shortboard attached. I disconnected it and went back to using the same FBV2 footswitch I had zero problems with for months, but the problem still exists when using that footswitch. I AM IN DESPERATE NEED OF HELP!!!

With sincere thanks,

Ryan
