Try removing all power sources from the unit, including the computer
batteries, for a few minutes. I think that amounted to "ctrl alt del" on
that little gem.

Just got a Sony 2010 off eBay and when you turn it on, you can hear a hiss
in the background, but nothing works, except the clock is running,
although
I can't set it. If I turn the volume up the hiss goes up, but none of the
buttons work, no matter which one I push nothing happens...none of the
direct tuning buttons, or the memory presents, scans , bands, nothing!
I've
got another Sony 2010 that works perfectly so I know how to use the radio
and I've looked inside regarding the Error 3 message that some people have
reported on but that isn't it...something is truly amiss...any suggestions
will be much appreciated. Is there some kind of reset switch anywhere...I
forget??
Thank you.
