While you're here, how about checking out the Astronomy Book List ?

Try removing the battery from the front panel. Mine LX200 wigged out one time
similar to that and removing the battery for a few seconds fixed it.

Hopefully that will do it, otherwise I'm afraid Meade is probably your only
other option.
