This is a very good suggestion and I would second the idea. It's
not difficult to open the AN1x case - simply remove the plastic
knobs on the front panel, flip it over and remove the approximately
40 screws to remove the case cover.

This very topic has been discussed on the list previoulsy, although
not recently (search the list archives), and it was determined a
cable connector had become loose in transit. A similar problem has
cropped up from time to time affecting the Ribbon Controller too -
same fix is applicable.
