Chargemaster 1500 constantly dispensing

[Nowind0]

I have had a Chargemaster 1500 for years and the other morning I walk in the reloading room to find all the powder that was in the reservoir is now on top of the scale and the dispensing tube is running.
Long story short, I cannot get the dispensing tube to stop running on slow speed. I have tried cancel/stop and put in a new charge weight and it will dispense up to the charge weight, but then the slow speed keeps running afterwards.
Anyone ever had this issue? Hopefully, someone has a solution.
Thanks
Mike

Well the obvious comes to mind. Switch has eroded or stuck in the on position. Call RCBS and ask. They have the best CS in the world when it comes to their product line. Good luck.

The Programming Guru for the CM 1500 at RCBS has the solution. If I recall correctly, and if he is still there, ask for Don Legg Jr.

Electronics and bugs do not go well together ;D
