[dba-Tech] HP 3820

No it is a mechanical issue so no work around yet :) I have tried superglue
and some other experiments but have had no luck in the fix!!

That definitely clears it up.  My seven year old, who gets to tear the

Rocky

P.S. Is there any way to 'hot wire' it, to get around the problem?  I.e., is
it electronic or mechanical?
