BA XDA IIs Faulty Buttons

[simonsalo]

I just purchased a BA 2s from Ebay knowing there was a problem with the unit. Basically it works perfectly except for the following problems, so I thought I would seek your advice before disassembling.

The on / off button: Only turns the unit on or when held down toggles the backlight. It does not turn the unit off.
None of the four silver front panel buttons work at all. Except after a reset the today menu comes on & off several times as iff the button press was delayed then all the presses were suddenly activated by the reset.
The left navigator button acts as the up button. The up & right do not work but the down and centre buttons work normally.

I only payed a couple hundred Australian dollars and hope that I can fix it, reflash it or at worst use it for spares.

Does anyone think doing a Wiki guided dissasemble will yield any results? Can anyone fix it for a fee? Would it be worth sending to an XDA repair centre? I look forward to any thoughts...

Regards
Simon

you should try to check your buttons setting first= setting>buttons (try it first)
if it doesnt work, it might be the hardware malfunction.

I sell the parts you'd need on ebay but check for loose or corroded connections first.
