Weird problem with new SG

[Colnago]

Use a suction cup or a piece of tape folded so that it is an upside down “T” stuck to it so you can pull it out.
Please don’t pry it out, there’s no need to even if it’s a tight fit.

The suction cup is something I hadn't thought of, I'll try it, thanks!

That does sound like a cold solder joint or ground issue.
Have you tried poking around in the control cavity, moving some wires around with a chopstick while plugged in?

That's next on the agenda! It's been behaving so I'm playing the crap out of it...
