HT1000 Dead LED

[maxkelley_kc2spy]

I have an HT1000 that has a seemingly dead LED... No light up on power-on, RX, TX, and scan program (what the user needs!). Think it's as simple as a dead LED, or is this part of a bigger problem?

Check your programming, there is an option to disable the LED.

Checked that, turned out to be a bad flex... Very brittle plastic connectors, too! The insertion levers for the flex on those plastic connectors actually broke in half when trying to remove them.

No.I think the above person meant to check in the RSS software.In the programming software,there is a option to disable the LED.

Yeah, I realize that, and checked it in the RSS. The LED was enabled on receive, TX, and for low battery warnings, and showed on none of them. However, when I opened the radio, I saw that the flex was beginning to rip, and had some corroded pads. I'm thinking it's probably the latter that caused it
