A while ago my dr1000 got a little knock which "opened" the bottom part of the casing a bit. It didnt crack the casing, it appears that the casing is supposed to/can open like that. I clicked it back together and the unit continued working fine. I noticed a while later that the reset button had dropped out or into the device. Which wasnt an issue as I didnt really use it. However my device has done that wonderful self drain of the battery and I need the reset button to try and force it back into some semblance of life. So Im wondering is it possible to repair or replace the reset switch or is there another way to force the unit to reset?
