I have had a similar problem with two 41C "fullnut". It was the connection of the display with the circuit board. A faulty soldered connector caused the problem.

I hope it can help

Best Regards

Jon

Guenter --

Jon's diagnosis seems reasonable. I have a fullnut 41CX and a recently-acquired fullnut 41C. The CX had similar symptoms, and was fixed by repairing faulty solder connections and cleaning off some contamination.

My 41C has similar symptoms, and I expect that I will order the same service for it.
