CDM1250/HT1550 appear dead??

[Woody_99]

OK, questions on the mentioned radios....

CDM1250 started 'locking up' in the display and operations occasionally..
removing power would sometimes reset it to work again but the problem continued until now
it simply won't load up. Lights come one, radio appears to have power but nothing in the display and it
doesn't self-test and load up the firmware for use. Guessing firmware upgrade needed? It's probably
an older version but no way to tell now.

HT1550.. appears dead except that the top green light will blink once when switched on, but no beep, audio or
self-testing...
problem reported as "just stopped working" from an individual seems to have that same problem a lot....
I'm betting water damage, any ideas?

thanks!

HT1550's don't self-test. Sounds like that one is inhibited.

[Woody_99]

Yep, it's inhibited alright.... won't come out of it's shell for anything or anyone..

I'm gonna try to read them later and see what gives.

Had A CDM1250 that would do the same thing mic lights would be on but nothnig else.If you turned the power supply off and back on the display would come back.Changed the head and the unit has never had the problem again
