The noisy sound when you turn the scanner on is normal. It goes through a
self-test while the yellow light is blinking. What is not normal is when that
blinking light stays blinking and doesn't become a steady light.
You did see Tonys instructions on how to take your scanner apart and clean it,
didn't you? It is very thorough.
I have to admit, that I haven't gotten my nerve up to actually *do* it, despite
the fact that the scanner sits there useless right now. One of these years I'll
gather the nerve.
