Anyone Understand BT Freestyle 3500

Norfolk_Jim

I've woken up this morning to find all 3 hand sets on my BT freestyle 3500 have blank displays and the loudspeaker button is glowing red.
Nothing changes this, even taking the batteries out and putting them back.
I've gone through the manual and can find nothing about this.
Has anyone else had this problem or know how to fix it?

Have you had a brief power cut maybe? If the battery on the main unit was not charged then maybe the memory has been wiped?

I dont think so, if there had been I would have noticed my aram clock going wrong as well. It flashes if theres been a power cut but thanks anyway.

Had a look at the manual by googling 'bt freestyle 3500' but could only see renewing batteries as a possible solution. I assume you have tried this.

Thanks for that. I had done the same thing with no joy and BT helpline no longer cover this model - so looks like I'll have to bin them.

All 3 hand sets are showing the same blank screen & solid red light so I think we can safely discount battery issues.

Thanks anyway forum.

Have you tried the obvious? Re-boot the base station. That worked for one of my old DECT systems (it appears it just got confused).

I don't know anything about your phone either but a friend of mine dropped his Satnav and it was fixed by poking a wooden tooth pick (NOTE WOODEN) into a very small re-boot hole. Is there any such possibility on your home station?
