I have not heard any clicking sounds when turning the knobs and have not heard/seen a timer. Maybe it is in a newer version. Good luck!

I haven't experienced that issue. I was thinking though, do you have a timer set? I am sorry. Please let us know how you get this resolved.

I think you can loosen the screw that holds the knob and adjust it. I had the same issue. Kind of a goofy design.

Hello, Mine is off on zero and highest on 5... and that is correct. doesn't sound like your knob was put on properly, the arrows line up.... hope this helps...

Yes, setting the timer by turning the knob clockwise will sound a loud "dinging" sound when the timer approaches zero time. Turning the knob in a counter clockwise motion is the always "on" position.

This has never happened to me. I just checked the knobs and they work as they should. Hope this helps.Thanks, Brigida

I had the exact same problem, Called their customer service dept. The agent was RUDE and not helpful. I sent the timer to the company to the attention of the president in late October with a letter explaining the problem. Have heard nothing. NO letter, no replacement,. Nothing. I bought two...one I returned, and one I installed and that one will not keep the program. JUNKY products. give up and buy something else. Company does not stand by their products.

Take the wall plate off. "Pop" off the plate surrounding the off/on switch. That exposes 3 setting dials for length of time, width of sensor, etc. Use a flat head screwdriver to adjust settings. The first dial might be set to "test" and could be causing the problem. Please be safe around electrical wires and good luck!

Stuck Knob Solution here! Hello, I had the same problem and found the perfect solution online (for just $2.99): In order to fix this problem you just need a larger knob which provides the extra leverage needed to (effortlessly) turn the knob. The original knob should come off easily by wiggling and pulling at the same time. The knob is attached to a 1/4'' shaft so any larger knob that fits a 1/4'' shaft will do fine. I used one from radio shack (Model: 274-407), which was 1/4'' shaft and it also contained a micro screw that you can tighten to ensure a snug fit. This knob slightly covers the labels (ALT,VS IAS, etc) but because these values show up on the screen as you tune to them, it's no big deal for me. Btw, I attempted to contact Saitek for a solution and shocker! -No Response.

I Jerry Rigged it as it was a bit cumbersome with the switch. I simply held the swith onand pushed a small wooden wedge under the switch so now it stays on!! Good luck.

This happened to me also. Just press the timer/clock button on the lower left and it should reset properly.

Turn the bottom knob to 0 and the top to the off position as well. The power is still going to the machine and the light is still on but it won't turn on automatically.

I would say install it with the switch in the "on" position, then. Once you set the timer to turn the switch "off" the moving track should be able to force the on/off toggle switch to "off" and all should be fine.

Make sure the little switch is positioned in the center Position. Left is OFF. Center is Timer program, and right position is on continuous. If the clock rotates automatically then it is wired correctly. If it still does not turn off then I don't know what the problem could be other than a mechanical failure.

This is part of the issue I have had from the beginning. Try turning the knob situated above the handle. It locks the unit in place if you have it seated properly. I hope that helps...

You should be able to tighten that clamp. To do this, first unclamp it, then turn the knob on opposite end of clamp clockwise. Then try clamping it again. You should be able to turn that knob with your hands with it unclamped, if not you can use pliers.
