X5L remote used as replacement for M3?

Masq · 09-02-2010, 05:30

Hi,

I have an M3L, but the remote has pretty much died on me and it's no longer fully functioning. It was mentioned elsewhere that an X5L remote control is fully compatible with the M3. Can anyone confirm this? If anyone has one i'd be interested in buying it too.

Many thanks

Short answer: Yes, it's compatible.

Thanks, it seems that way and Cowon have confirmed it too. Next problem: I need to get hold of one

I have one in good condition that I no longer need. Make me an offer!

UK/EU? Is it in good condition? Could you post a pic please. I don't know what the going rate is but I saw in a thread someone sold a practically brand new one for €15. What were you thinking?

If that's all it's worth, then I shan't bother, given the difficulty I had in finding it in the 1st place.

Not to worry, I bought an M3 off ebay and got another remote with it. It seems the fault was on my headphone jack of the player and not the remote. Thanks.

So now you have a spare remote and another M3 for parts

, you could have your M3 for another decade!

I guess

Annoyingly I had the M3L and I now have the M3. I was looking at transplanting the L battery on to the M3 but I read it's soldered to the board and I don't want to break both of them. I might try get a headphone jack and repair the other one but I don't like my chances.
