His problem is surely that the clip is not on properly.
It needs to be *VERY* *VERY* tight - a sharp tug should not pull it off.
The pins need to be VERY VERY DEAD LEVEL with each other. Use a ruler. 
Squint along the pins. A single pin out of alignment will cause the thing
to fail. 

I was in your friend's situation for some time. I would not believe that this
was the problem. But it is. I have never seen Ditto-2 fail for another reason.
