Yamaha Cs1x Tuning Issues

So I'm very frustrated because I bought a yamaha cs1x a few years ago despite the mixed reviews, and now the external tuning will no longer stay consistent. I have tried to use the factory reset feature but it will only go back in tune for 5 minutes and then be knocked out of tune again. Are there any PERMANENT ways to fix this? I have faith 8n this machine and it has some nice presets but if I can't find a permanent solution, im gonna have to trash it. :/
