Just received mine today. If I push and hold a button in, it works, but the button doesn't stay in. Is there a trick to pushing the buttons?

with mine, they all stay when pressed. When you press one button, the previous selection jumps back. Yours is probably defective.

It sounds like you may have a bad unit. These buttons act like old radio buttons, push one in and the others pop out. Only one button can be pressed in at a time.

Most certainly a defective unit. Each button should hold individually; whilst one button pressed disengages the next pressed and stays held in.

Make sure u don't hold the buttons in and just tap them that seems to work for us

I have not had any problems pushing the buttons. I really like this case and would definitely purchase it again!

Not sure my friend, i took my chance and it worked perfectly fine? At first i thought it didnt work until i messed with the settings on the emulator. You pretty much have to manually configure the buttons .its pretty easy. If i can do it anyone can haha.

have you tried resetting it? This happened to me and I pushed the reset button and it started working again. I cannot remember for sure where the reset button is exactly but I know it is in the instructions.

Hi I have had no problem. You have to keep the button pressed down while turning, Best Wishes.

Try putting it in upside down from the way the instructions say I put it the way it said at first and it would slide out from bottom, but I flipped and now it's great, and it will need a nice hard push for it to click so don't be afraid, but don't exaggerate on the force to get it to click.

Try to press the area below the switch button...I tried it and it's working again.

The only problem I have ever had with the button is that if you extend the screwdriver while holding down the button (like he does in the show), you have to press very hard. Other than that, I have no problems with it! It has never gotten stuck for me, and even when you press it, it does not go far enough down to get stuck. It is a small button, but it's big enough to press. Also it is in great proportion to the rest of the screwdriver.Hope this helps!

The push button seems OK. I have not pushed it all that much. I, too, had failures of the intermatic unit that is similar to this unit. I ran into "OP" failures. So far the unit works well.

I had some trouble with this too. U have to pull out as u clicks on the 2 buttons on the side. Hope this helps!

I have the same problem. The button simply sticks and the only thing to do is push the left part which happens to be a reset button. I'm not sure if this is a defect or not. The button seems like a rocker switch and you don't want that in this situation.

mine doesn't work either. you have to really push it in and sometimes it doesn't stay.

If your haveing the same problem i had it is because i was not holding the button down long enough. I have to hold it down firm approx three seconds or so. I have not had any problems with this unit at all.

I did and it work great but I think my biggest issue would be the button, having to be pressing the button constantly gets annoying and it hurts your hand.

If I haven't used mine in for about 10 mins, it will not respond the first time I push a button. It's like you have to wake it up. The second time I push a button (sound, vibrate or shock) it works fine and will continue to be "active" until it "goes to sleep" in about 10 mins.

Yes, I had a lot of trouble also, but keep pushing on it as hard as you can. It will open. Try pressing "down" and at the same time push the button "in". The opposite green grip will start to push out and the batteries are under that. Hope this helped you.
