my ecoquest runs but intermittently switches off and then on again. What's wrong?

I'm sorry but I don't know. I never had that problem with mine. My problem was the LCD display showing erratic characters on it.

Have you tried resetting the system by holding both the Input and Standby/On buttons for three seconds until the indicators light. After you do that, it should turn itself off. If that doesn't work, I would return it for a replacement.

There are two settings. interval and continuous. Do you have it on the continuous setting? How long does it run before shutting off? If its on continuous and water remains when isdone running, I would say maybe is not working properly.

I have had that same problem myself. I found out that it goes off for about an hour.

Seriously ? Mine never stops unless I power it off. The only thing I can think of is something with the timer setting. Maybe you have the timer set to go off every few minutes. Can you get a stopwatch and get some data on the intervals of on/off ? Maybe unplugging it will reset it if it is for some reason set by the timer option. If that doesn't reset it then perhaps it is malfunctioning. It definitely sounds like timer related.

Make sure you have the proper input selected, usb/eSata, otherwise if it detects no input it will shut down automatically within 10 seconds

Just tested. Yes, if you unplug and then plug again it will start running without a resetting.

Make sure you have charged the top of the feeder. It will have a green onsite near the off/on switch. To test it touch the feeder and push the remote button. You should get a slight shock if it is working!

Hi Ya. I've have a couple of issues with the on/off switch. But, I think it's because of the water proof casing and that I'm a little impatient sometimes. It'll start up as long as I press and hold the on/off button til the little green light lites up. Then it works great!!

Have not had this issue, but would think you maybe right on the money. Your computer may be dropping "vampires" (Items hooked up to your USB that are using power (although very minimal in this case)). As i generally do a daily shut down I have not had this issue.

It's a problem with the machine. It would do that whenever mine went to sleep and started up again. I tried everything, and talked to everyone with no success. I returned it. I got the V5-552PG-x809 when it went down to $669 and it is incredible. Everything works as it should.

Mine shuts off between 3.5-4 hrs on constant run, about 6ish hrs on intermittent.

The only thing i can thnk of is pretty obvious, but for what its worth, make sure the k/b is charged, and nexus too. Otherwise I have no idea what would make it turn off. maybe somebody else would know

For me the only times it turns off is when you turn the power off the same way you turn on or if you pause it and its inactive then. Otherwise it keeps playing.

Hmmm, Only suggestion I can make is to unplug the power to it and plug it in again, sometimes it needs to be restarted.

Mine did that as well, I just kept turning it off and off and moving the settings a few times. It works fine now.

Check your internet connection (wired or wireless) and try to shut everything off and then start it again. I have no problems with mine
