If you tell them it is another kind of problem they will confuse the issue, or your CarePaq reg number, or they will shut down a facility, etc. The bottom line: they will need more time, at least seven days, to send you a new unit. :devilboy:
:confused totally: That's never happened to me. My last CarePaq return was ~ eight weeks ago.

The seven days thing is if you have something repaired under warranty but not Carepaq. They ship your unit back to you in these cases; with a CarePaq they ship you a different unit and you ship the bad unit back to them, sometimes in the same box (if you don't have to pull any info off the returning unit).
