931 early 2nd edition LED VU question....

[blu_fuz]

So my brown power lable 2nd gen 931 has a funky issue with the LED vu meters.


When on radio or line-in the LEDs are all pretty much on full bright and all on and really only flicker off when there is just about nothing broadcasting through the signal.


When using a tape, the VUs act normal and all the LEDs flicker like they should going on and off with the playback signal.


Question is, why?
The sound is good on all functions, but the VUs just act strange on radio and line-in.

Try cleaning function switch see if that helps

Honestly, I will not clean the function switch. I don't want to take the chance working that knob and possibly breaking that brittle gear inside. Sorry Bill, good suggestion though!

There's got to be something else I can try .


It's almost as if the input signal from the radio and line-in is too high, though it doesn't produce distorted sound.

Well line in on these when turned up from MP3 or iPod will show LEDs up high, mine does same As for Radio try am see if it changes
