it might be a broken pcb board,iirc someone on here found this to be there problem or it could be a dry solder on the board.

thanks for the replies, how do you check for a dry joint or broken board?.

thanks tony

Just a good light, a magnifying glass, a hot fine tipped soldering iron, some good quality fine multicore solder and a lot of care I'm afraid.

 

It is worth focussing your attention on anything that may be subject to a bit of stress/movement like battery connections and button connections.
