Have any owners had this problem? Does anyone have any thoughts on what would cause this?

Same deal here - I think the charger base has a fundamental mechanical design problem with the mechanism that mates the charger contracts to the shaver while in the base. For a while, I used q-tips to force the shaver up against the contacts, but even that method is failing me now. I find I'm still a razor man, so I'm going to put this turkey (Braun) out to pasture. Total cost of ownership is very high, between the acquisition cost, cost of replacing the head/foil, and the cleaning fluid. Even when I try to stick with the program for a month or two using the Braun, the shave is not even in the same league as one of these multiblade razor systems.

I have not had this problem. I would think that this is a manufacturers defect and that the product should be returned.

I have two of these models and am not having that problem. Perhaps yours is defective. Sorry to hear that if it is. Good Luck.

I've had no problems like this. It seems there may be something else going on with yours. Was anything spilled on it?

I have not experienced this problem either. You may want to swap it out...I really enjoy mine. It's worth the effort to get one that is working properly.

I'm sorry. I haven't had this problem. Mine has worked fine. I would contact the manufacturer.

I have had mine for awhile now since April and never had a problem. You may need to send it back.

Ours did not have this problem. It sounds like a defect. See about exchanging.

I have one. So far it hasn't done that to me. See if you can return or exchange it for something else.

I have had mine for some time and don't recall that it was a problem when I installed the battery. Sounds like you may have to return it and get another, BTW, I do like (and trust) the unit.

Ours did the same thing after 4 years of use. We haven't gotten it fixed yet. If anyone knows a solution to the problem, I'd love to hear it as well.

This has never happened on mine. Sounds like yours may have a defect. I recommend returning it.

Mine just started doing this after somewhat heavier use the last couple weeks. What is the solution?

Never had this happen to me. If it continues to happen, reset to manufacture settings and start over. If this doesn't help you have bigger issues

Mines just started doing exactly the same thing. Did you ever get a solution?
