Help - RCX sensor port failure

Our first RCX has a sensor port failure on port 3 (Aaaarghhh...).

The sensor port will read 0 and 1 only. It can react with the touch, light and
rotation sensors (showing 0 or 1), so it somehow still senses if a sensor is
present.

We have no idea what happened, but any suggestions/ideas would be very welcome.

[We bought this unit in the US - while living in China - and are now in Denmark
, so its not like just going to the nearest Toys'R'Us to get a replacement].


Thanks for any help
