NAD 412 Tuner Problem

So I spent small money on the auction site for a NAD 412, and...it has a problem.

When I first plug it in and power it up, it works fine, but if I power it off while leaving it plugged in - and then turn it on again - it's frozen. Nothing shows on the readout, it won't tune, it isn't on the last station I was tuned to.

Any idea how I start thinking usefully about this? I like the tuner in general.

tks,
s.

Bumping this just to get it top of mind for the forum again. Any thoughts, anyone?

(Other than don't turn it off, or don't buy cheap tuners.)

I'd probably look at power supply voltages first. Those caps are often the
first to bail.
 
I've had a similar problem with a NAD 214 that I've owned for years. The only work around I know is to unplug and replug the unit from the power supply and it seems to reset and work.
