EC5 Pedal question
I have an EC5 Pedal that I want to use it with my Pa4X.
I press A B C D E buttons with the same pressure and they're responding fine, no delay except the E button assigned to Start/Stop for styles.
The E button not working correctly and sometimes it's not responding at all.
So I was wondering if there is any fix or idea to repair it.
Thanks for any suggestion

Just wondering did you try to change button E two button a and have it start and stop on button a.
You could always change the buttons back to e if it's the same is e5 switch or something else..
Or I should say just make button A the start and stop button see how that works..
Let us know what you find out

I had same problem - opened up the EC5 and sprayed with an "electronics/circuit board" cleaner - works fine now.

EC5 Pedal repair
I cleaned my EC5 pedal with QD Electronic Cleaner but still the button E not working. Other buttons (A B C D) working fine.
Is there other way to fix it or replacing any part of the button E.
If somebody has any suggestion/info to what part should I replace (part number) and if it's easy to do it by myself, would be very helpful.
Thanks

Did you completely open it up when you applied the cleaner?
I have no idea about "parts" but think it might be cheaper or more economical to buy another one (this is what I did but luckily managed to get my original one working again)

I've had loads of these develop this exact problem and EVERY single one has been the main DIN socket.
I bought a bunch a few years ago, and have changed all of my EC5 sockets.
