I've had a Tascam 32 along with a DX-2D sitting around for some time. The 32 works great; finally the time came to fire up the DX-2D. It did fire up, but the 2 "engaged" LEDS did not light up. No matter the position of the engaged switches, they do not light up. I placed the 32 in record mode: no dice. I disconnected the unit from the 32: same behaviour. I did not test for sound tho...
Finally I opened 'er up and didn't see anything unusual inside (no blown caps or cold solder points). DeOxit-ized the switches, then I put 'er back together again. No dice.
With the switches on the engaged position (undepressed), the LEDS glow for the tiniest instant when I switch the unit off...
The question is now mandatory: Is this normal behaviour? What's the normal behaviour, connected and/or disconnected from the 32? If there is a malfunction, from these symptoms, could it be the DX-2D itself, or the controlling circuitry from the 32?
Please help!
Thanks!
