Cd player not working without remote

Thanks Mofimadness: I did try this and have just tried it again for about 10 minutes. Still nothing. Again it works perfectly through using the remote. Scratching my head over this one, usually it is the remote that gives out

In addition to MoFi's advice I would add that when you unplug it. Press all the buttons on the front of the player. Sometimes there is stroed capacitance in the unit and the processor cannot free itself of all stored memeory unless there is a complete drain. Then replug it and try it. I would also consider popping the cover and check all connections. Maybe the face plate connection to the IC board has worked loose.

Ok Theo, I gave that a try and the "on" button worked when I pressed it, the other ones did not. I have unplugged again and pressed all the buttons and will leave itg unplugged overnight and see what happens.
I'm not too sure I'm up to taking the cover off the thing...

So you gained the "on" button working where it hadn't been?
Do I understand you correctly? But if the rest is still not functioning I am afraid the unit has a deeper problem.
Did you pull the cover and check connections? And before you get to involved is the unit under warranty? If so, I beleive I would refrain from opening the unit up and send it in.

Well I unplugged it overnight and then replugged this morning. Everything was working just great.....but..a little while later I tried it again and nothing works without the remote again.
I think I will have to pack it up and send it in as it is under warranty.
