Hi all,
Was out today in the pouring rain when all of a sudden my deus went mad, giving signals everywhere even in mid air. Checked the bagged up control box, their was some moisture but nothing to worry about - a very faint sheen of dew. Have come home and left the control box on a radiator for 3 hours and the same is still happening - has this happened to anyone else or has anyone got any suggestions? Much appreciated.
Yours tearfully (and out of warrenty),
Box :-(

Condensation will cause this with electrics...
3 hours on a radiator is probably a bit much...
I would place it in a warm ventilated room, if there are any sections that can be opened i would open them.....
Also with the Deus the headphones are important and i would also place them in a warm room....
Overnight would give enough time for the condensation to evaporate...
Hope it goes well
