@ Mudpuddle: Shaking it? Probably not a good thing - esp with older models. I did however used to work in IT Support and we always asked/advised Users to try a reboot. It solved 50% of the problems right away.
@ RT: Yup - taking a hammer/wrench to BDM's (Big Dumb Machines) often works a charm too...
old Fords were that way: a tap on the starter motor solved a lot of problems... because the solenoid contact points were getting worn or the Bendix gear stuck...
