Fading Display on NAD M3

Hi M3 lovers, 

I just got a defective M3 yesterday. Among all issues, there is the screen issue! Could anyone provide me with a relevant firmware and instructions to solve this issue please? 

I also got a "protected mode" issue yesterday when listening to the amp. After 1 hour of listening, the left channel didn't work anymore and I got the "protected mode" screen ... also got a non working volume potentiometer ... well there are some work to do to get it fine and if you encountered these kind of issues, your advices are welcome!

Thanks

Hi guys, 

I have the same problem (firmware v1.12).
Please, could someone send me the last version?

email me:  eded03@yahoo.com.br

I tried directly NAD but with no success.

Thanks in advace.

If it is like the M51 DAC there is a VFD test mode....if so enter the test mode and leave the display on overnight.  Cycle the power and hopefully the characters will be evenly lit

Hello to everyone

I have the same problem with the fading display in my nad M3. I tried to upgrade with the 1.12 firmware but my laptop’s display is stucked in the following message “sent upgrade command. Waiting for synchronisation” and nothing happens.
I would really appreciate any help about this problem.

Many thanks in advance
