In the last couple of months my empeg has begun doing something unusual and I'm not sure where to even begin tracking down the problem.

If I shut off the car for a brief period of time (30 minutes or less, I think) when I restart the car the empeg stays dead until I pull it out of the sled and re-insert it. If the car is parked for a long period of time (overnight) the empeg fires right up when the car starts.

The empeg does not fail to start after a short duration hiatus every time, but probably about 60% of the time. It always starts right up after a long-duration hiatus.

Standby time is set to 60 seconds.

All other aspects of operation seem nominal.
