Harmony 880 rattling noise

[Wick]

There is a very slight rattling noise when I tilt the remote. Does anyone else have this noise? Im not sure if its the sensor that lets it know when its tilted or a defect. I will return it for another if its a defected one.

Thanks

I have the same thing Paul. It is so slight I need to put my ear up to it though. I think you may be right about the sensor. It sounds like a very very slight scratching when I tilt lengthwise or side to side.

Yeah, its so slightly that you dont notice unless holding it up to your ear. And the remote works perfectly, so its prob not a big deal. Just wanted to make sure since the thing is so expensive.

Mine does the same thing! :lol:
Must be the sensor inside to turn it on?

Mine rattles too.
Only, I never noticed it until I read this.
I had to try it for myself and sure enough,
a slight rattle can be heard.
It must be the motion sensor that
automatically turns on the LCD when
movement is detected.

Correct. It is the "pickup" sensor. No worries.
