Hello all,

something is broken for my jukebox, either something in the charger or
something in the jukebox itself. The faq says this:

Q13: When I plug in the charger when the Recorder is turned off, it turns
itself on and starts charging in the Archos software? What's up?
A13: There is a mechanism in the jukebox which turns on the jukebox when
it senses DC power.

My View Battery screen shows ~0.03V whether or not the charger is plugged
in, but still it does turn on when my charger is inserted. I thought it
was some sort of switch thingy inside the connector, but the faq suggests
otherwise. Is the faq wrong, or is this a key to a solution for me? I took
it apart some days ago, but didn't look really well into the charger
connection. Hm, I seem to remember my jukebox turning on even without the
charger being plugged to the mains supply. So is it a switch after all? Or
just some sensitive powersensing thingy?

Hoping for the best,
Ronald
