You're sure you're not using the timer on the remote, right?

There may be a short-circuit somewhere and I can see three potential points
which can cause the problems that may be fixed easily:
- - the green advance knob
- - remote connector or the remote itself
- - the electronic switch that starts the transport

Sorry, I can't help you with further trouble shooting/dissembling since I
haven't had trouble with mine yet.

HTH,

BTW: What do you mean by "switching on"? Except for the lamp, mine does not
have an on/off switch.
