Re: North Dec button not working

Michael Hermann also thinks the logic chip is the likely culprit. ?Can you even get another of those now a days?

I did try a CMOS reset but that didn't fix the problem.

I don¡¯t have another HC cable to try. ?The cable is in good shape and hasn¡¯t been tugged on. ?I tried wiggling it at the connectors but that didn¡¯t help.

The new HC and cable on EBay is a possibility.

I am currently only using this mount for control via KStars/Ekos so the fact that the north button doesn¡¯t work is not a huge issue. ?Everything still works remotely.

Bill, It must be the I.C. (although I have not seen the schematic of the HandBox) as you have eliminated the actual switch with your testing method.? I need to take apart my Handbox to see just what is in there...
