The battery only comes on when the battery needs changing. It blinks momentarily when you press the tuner button and slightly longer when you press and hold the tuner button to turn it off.
SOURCE: tuner for my acoustic guitar no longer works
Change the battery again and make sure you get a fresh name brand battery.
SOME batteries that are off brand or old or just plain defective will cause your symptoms.
ALSO check that it is securely contacting the battery contacts.
Things thaat come on for a second MAY just be residual charge on the filter capacitors that a breif contact was made to the battery.
SOURCE: Ive used my guitar tuner
It probably has corrosion going to the battery pack, take it apart and get it resolder, at the batt
SOURCE: I recently purchased the Oscar
Plugging the cable into the guitar should turn on the electronics.
SOURCE: bought apx500 from ebay. new
to me it sounds like a loose connection or solder point is completely disconnected take it to your local shop and should take them not time to look it over. unless you feel comfortable doing it yourself. do at your own risk.
