Question about SanDisk Sansa e260 MP3 Player

1 Answer

My sound stopped working!

I like to listen to my Sansa on the way to school and stuff, and so when I went to turn it on yesterday, the sound wasn't working! I checked and tried everything I can think of. It's not on mute, the sound's turned all the way up and I've tried five different pairs of headphones, three of which are brand new. I'm stumped on what to do and am so pissed off, seeing as how I only just got it a Christmas time! Please help me.

Does seem really odd I must say. All I can suggest for that is to update to the latest firmware version if you haven't already: http://www.sandisk.com/Retail/Default.aspx?CatID=1376 Otherwise try a format. The e200 series does seem to become buggy after a while apparently. I had the corrupt file problem where some of the file names got messed up and you couldn't play the file. Had to format then, lost everything and had to rebuild from scratch.

Interference when playing
Given the troubleshooting steps you have already performed, the only other thing to try would be a different set of headphones. If that is not successful, checking and updating the firmware is a last ditch effort. Failing at that, you're looking at failed components and either official repair/replacement or to be comfortable with component-level work with the innards using a multimeter and soldering iron and hoping that you can find what failed.

Not starting
Air/fuel/spark. check the 3, and then do a dummy test. I know , im not insulting you, but my dakota wont start if my gascap isnt screwed down all the way, it throws a sensor and it wont start. So just do all the dummy stuff you know has to be done to start it, put it in park, close all the doors, stuff like that, never know, could be something simple. if not, as above, Air/fuel/spark. need all 3 to start an engine.
