Help - Handle "switch" broken? Has anyone else encountered a similar problem and how was it fixed?

I went through this recently with a much older BnD mower (13yr old MM850). The handle pushes a "button" inside the casing that turns the motor on. Both parts are plastic and over time they wear out just enough that the contacts don't quite reach in the switch. You can easily replace the handle and switch for about $15 with a little searching online (for instance http://www.ereplacementparts.com/black-and-decker-mm850-type-mulching-mower-parts-c-4167_9514_11387.html, but I haven't bought from them so caveat emptor). I am well aware of the dangers of mowers so I took the low road and wired around the safety switch but that's not advisable if anyone but yourself is going to use the mower.

I experienced the same problem once.Just reset Fidelio turning off for a while than switch on, it should work well afterward!

I had an issue where the switch would randomly change away from the active input even when no other inputs were powered on. Support said that adding power can help with that and sent me a plug for free. It didn't end up fixing my issue, but at least they were pretty willing to help. I ended up finding out that the Wii U was apparently sending a little something over HDMI even when powered off causing it to switch away from my active input. I removed the Wii U from the switch and put the Xbox 360 in its place and haven't had the issue since (with apple tv, 360 and PS3 as the sources)

I purchased two and gave one as a gift. I think the problem is in the switch. I found that you have to push down rather hard as you switch it on.

Yes. I had a one way in there but the switch stopped working. Figured an upgrade was in order!

Have same issue with posts on panel cover also snapped. Original switch works but dropped down and hard to use buttons. Good luck, Jeremy. Please comment if you find part name or ID and if you find a source; I will too. Best!

I am unable to offer assistance. Mine worked about two days before it quit working altogether. I did not get a chance to try it on BluRay before it stopped working. I would discourage anyone who was thinking of buying this switcher.

I've never had that happen to me I think.... I'm sorry I'm not much help all I could suggest is doing a recovery but if it's like in a mode similar to safe mode there must be away to switch out... Maybe on start up try f12 see all the boot options.

I'd just back up in the "Menu Tree" and try again. If that didn't work I'd Power cycle the unit to reboot it and start over. Good luck.

Mine did not work either. The switch was not functioning. But the most disappointing issue is that the seller and the manufacturer did not care to listen to my complains or try to repair the switch. No refunds was received.

We just followed the instructions under "Settings" one by one (very slowly). Basically you will be pressing the UP and OK button for each selection after switching it to ON. Try again. It should work. Thank you.

Thanks for the info! I opened up the housing and found that the plastic pin that forms a 'pivot' for the orange handle was partially broken. No hope of repair without buying new parts. So (like you), I rigged the switch to be permanently on! Still have all my fingers & toes after one mow.

If you can put it in another item try that. If not just unplug it from your computer or whatever you're hooked to and hook it later. Try switching them as well

Sounds like you may just have a bad switch, I've never had that problem. I would contact the manufacturer.sorry I can't help more... :(

If you are having trouble with the configuration try switching it with the switch on the side. Most games I believe are 'xinput' by default, but switching to 'dinput' may help.

There is a tiny hole on the ring just inside the handle. Using the provided 'pin' tool , insert, depress and pull handle at same time. Do both and switch.
