    Hi guys,

    Anyone know how I might repair the vibrate function on my W580i which, for no reason has suddenly stopped working! Instead of vibrating I get clicking????

    Thanks in advance for your advice.....

    So simple yet guaranteed to fix the problem in 98% of cases. Was going to suggest this especially if the phone is rarely turned off. Never found out why the vibration does that if the phone is active too long.

    If memory serves me correct, you can see the vibrating motor on the W580i when battery is removed. Does all look ok?

    Thanks so much for taking the time to help guys - Whisht - thank you especially!

    Found the motor under the battery as soon as I removed the battery cover.

    removed the 2 screws either side. Pushed in a precision screwdriver and gently twiddled it - BINGO - it works again!

    Thanks!
