All these questions can be answered by search, of course, because they have all been covered time and time again.

However...

NO. you can't turn the service light off.
To check firmware you enter the service menu by following the sequence (from the standby screen) of

> * < < * < *

where < and > are joystick movements.

You will find the joystick count in there too.

@miss uk

Lots of these answers can be found in the FAQ or by searching... however, to access the menu, go > * << * < * (where < is left, and > is right on the joystick).

All you need for the joystick count is there.

There are several ways to 'disable' the service LED, you could...

- Bung it in the microwave, this guarantees no signal
- Switch it off
- Get violent

Other than that, you're stuck with it I'm afraid

Edit:

Darnit masseur, you beat me by 3 whole minutes!!

you could always stick some tape on there, non-see-through, like duck-tape ,

You could open it up and remove the led.

You could make it flash red for signal and green for low power.

You can take a screwdriver and a small hammer, and carefully smash the LED....
If I had all the answers, I wouldn't have any questions.
