I'm suddenly having issues selecting patches in one of my Arachnid builds from last year (build thread here). It's been working fine for almost a year, but now seems wonky, as it no longer reliably changes from the first patch. If I apply pressure or wiggle the rotary knob just right it will work. Once I get a patch selected it will stay unless I jostle the rotary knob, then it reverts back to the 1st patch.
This makes me think it's a mechanical issue with the rotary switch itself. I re-flowed the solder joints for the rotary switch, just to be sure and also switched out the eeprom, but no luck.
Has anyone had an issue like this before? I'm somewhat hoping it's not the switch, as it would be a real pain to replace. Open to suggestions!
