suuljo Posted October 19, 2014 Share Posted October 19, 2014 I've been having my hd500 for quite a while now and recently I've started having problems with the tuner/tap switch. The button seems to get jammed and occasionally it goes into tuner mode and back by itself. Had it happen on stage last time for a few times and I can say it was pretty annoying :) Is there a replacement I could solder in or something?

alienux Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 You might try spraying it with electrical/contact cleaner first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suuljo Posted October 20, 2014 Author Share Posted October 20, 2014 tried an electrical/contact cleaner last week already, didn't help. i cleaned it first (quite thorougly) and then added a bit of wd-40 with a q-tip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Search the forums for it and you should see multiple options. Opening up the chassis and stretching the spring or cleaning the contact point directly would probably be your best bet.
