this thread has some pics posted for nx200 mode dial

it happens to me once in a really long while.

You may try blowing compressed air into that area before using any lubricant/solvent ect.

Great thread, detailed pics... I must have missed it.

On the other hand I am very cautious with blowing compressed air in it because I already have dust behind my NX200 back screen (only visible in the sun when off)

Sofar my NX200 works well again (both the PASM & jog-wheel), but I guess I'll have to wait a little longer to be sure.

I must say 'a drop" of oil was a bit exaggerated.

What I actually did was lubricating the wheels and then rotating them for a couple of minutes so the Kontakt40-oil could settle in. I did this while the jog-wheel wasn't working anymore. While rotating the wheel (with the oil) it started working again.

Keep in mind that this is a special oil for reviving electrical contacts (and maintaining them).
