five40kix Posted January 7, 2003 Report Share Posted January 7, 2003 Has anyone ever encountered this error before? As soon as I plug in my MD recorder into the wall, this message "NO ADJ!" comes up on the LCD. Nothing I do seems to get rid of this error (I tried hitting the reset button, but no luck). Can anyone w/ more technical experience guess what is going wrong here? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystyler Posted January 7, 2003 Report Share Posted January 7, 2003 The problem could lie with your battery... The unit works fine, otherwise? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted January 7, 2003 Report Share Posted January 7, 2003 I don't think it's a battery issue. I removed the battery and powered my MD with just the AC adapter and the same message came up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystyler Posted January 7, 2003 Report Share Posted January 7, 2003 I take it you have looked in your manual, or is it Japanese? Has this just started happening, or have you had the issue for a while? Have you tried a different adapter? And the unit works fine otherwise?

dannzz11 Posted April 4, 2004 Report Share Posted April 4, 2004 It has nothing to do with the battery I can tell you that much, this has happened to myAM-F80 three times now. The first time it happened the unit was only a few weeks old, I took the unit back and the supplier tried two new batteries before finally sending it away to be repaired. It has just happened again for the third time, I would love to know what causes this. On the last (second) repair, was a reference to padding settings, and a repaired switch...does this mean anything to anyone??? It's a great player and recorder but sooooooo unreliable.

MDX-400 Posted April 6, 2004 Report Share Posted April 6, 2004 Sounds like the internal EEPROM (or NVRAM or whatever holds the settings for the pickup adjustment) is somehow getting deleted. Sounds like some kind of malfunction with the EEPROM or with some power circuits in the unit getting abrupt cut-off or surges somehow. I highly doubt this is caused by any kind of user error... If the problem is recurring that is unfortunate--sounds like something is faulty in the unit that probably should have been replaced/repaired instead of simply re-calibrating the unit and sending it back to the owner. If these units are still under warranty, I'd say to send them back and note that the problem is or could be something that recurrs after a short time. If you guys are out of warranty, I'd say just forget about them (they'll probably cost too much in both money and headache to have them repaired and then loose adjustment again) It's sad/unfortunate but unless you're in the warranty period I'd say to just move on to a newer unit...

dannzz11 Posted April 6, 2004 Report Share Posted April 6, 2004 Thanks MDX-400, I thought it might not be economical to repair, I know a guy who dabbles in electronics I will see what he has to say given your advice. It's such a pity the unit looks like new cost me £170 and has had little use, I will not buy another Aiwa! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
