I have also witnessed the same condition you describe on my 6 opt 3. 
Powering on and off didn't help in my case. The old tried and true method of 
slapping the top cover, did however.  I finally took time to re-seat all 
connections inside the rig and poke around a bit. It then worked fine for 
six months until it was destroyed in a tornado two years ago. Not sure if I 
cured the problem or not.... but I had no more trouble until the storm cured 
it for good !
