    Vantage meter wont turn off!

    I have an old vantage its a good meter apart from high battery consumption. Its so quick to get what i need without lots of menus etc. The problem i have with this tool is its almost impossible to turn off unless i leave it to time out. I have a friend that has this problem with his also so it must be common?
    I have tried cleaning the on/off putton pad and contacts on the board but it made little difference. I impoted this meter myself from the US some years ago and was like this when i got it but seems to have got worse and 99% will not turn of with the button. Does Anyone have a fix for this problem??
    Even if i update to a more capable tool i wont be getting rid of this great bit of kit.

    forgive me if i sound completely silly, but i want to be absolutely sure i know what you mean. you do know that you have to press and hold the on/off button to turn it off, right?
