I was issued a Minitor V, the first pager I've had, thanks to a department grant. 'I've had this pager for about two months. I received it when it was brand new, straight from the dealer after programming. I have never abused it in any way, shape, or form. When I am on a call I take my issued HT1250, so the pager doesn't get damaged. Two days ago, it suddenly began powering off and on by itself. I tried removing and re-inserting the battery. Tried wiggling the battery ever so slightly (as much as it allows with the battery locking tab in place). No matter what I do, the pager completely erratically turns itself on and off. Even if I am not touching it and it is sitting on a desk, it suddenly will power down or cycle between powering off and on. I am fairly knowledgeable about electronics and figure if the problem is small I could fix it myself rather than waiting for a long turnaround from the shop. I have not opened the pager or attempted to fix it beyond troubleshooting.
Any ideas?
