Now, looking at it it looks very much like a software (firmware?) issue. So, 1) does anybody know how to do a factory reset? or has anybody opened one up? Is it flashed on there? can we re-flash it?

We arent going to send it in to get repaired, cause we arent going to spend the money, so really we are willing to try anything (nothing to lose).

Any help would be GREATLY apreciated.
Best possible advice, Contact Innovation FIRST. Let them handle it, its the best possible advice. Although I did open up a control system and fixed it, but its a whole lot complicated than you can think.
