Villy Boor --Boorelec Durban I think you will find that it is a problem with the surface of the plastic, We have a series here where over the years I have gone from advocating not to clean to cleaning them. This is my reason for using the finest grade of steel wool to resurface metal and plastic. Then a good wash in hot water and detergent to get impurities from all surfaces. Now wash again with contact cleaner and lightly coat with a silicone lubricant. Retention the fingers and its as good as new Villy Boor On Sat, 7 Dec 2002 08:49:13 Lyles Tv wrote: > >yes--replace the mode switch.
