RCBS Chargemaster combo problems

[Static_USMC]

Has anyone using the chargemaster combo experienced problems with key pad not working or zeroing problems.  Mine has been very loyal for last 6 years.   I used it last monday night, then Tues morning problems.  This has not had any mods done, I am looking for info on doing a factory "reset".  I checked youtube and other forums without any luck. 

RCBS gave me option to return item with check for $200 and they will send me new unit.  I feel that this is fair...just doesn't work into the budget this month.

 

Any help appreciated,

You might want to try another power brick if you have one or can borrow it from someone.  Sometimes their output drops to enough to light the system up but won't have the current to do anything.

 

If you can separate the powder measure from the scale, you can check if the scale starts working OK. That could mean either the power brick is not putting out enough power or the powder measure if the problem.
