I found an old Escort with DSP on Ebay. I won it for 99 cents...
Ok, now here is the problem. NO key. Any idea if I can get one anywhere? Professor Jim any ideas?

I think it works the same as the old GM "Passkey" system, which is just a resistor. The only thing is you need to find the value of the resistor...
SO there really isn't a coded key? DO you think escort can help? Or would they say "Buy a X50?"
I am not sure if that is correct. I have a DSP and years ago the Key housing on one of the keys came apart and there was more than a resistor on the little PCB. There was some sort of IC on the PCB along with other components.Originally Posted by SmaartAasSaabr
just tell them you use it for x and k band.man on them older models x k is same or better than on the top 3 rd at this time.u will see<>?Originally Posted by davekr
I've looked at this before, and it definitely isn't as simple as the GM Passkey system. I've worked on about 4 different DSPs for people in the last couple of months.
I believe that Cincinnati Microwave would disable the key system if you sent your unit in to them, but I am not sure how they went about doing that. I had previously thought that they added a small circuit board to the unit, but I now believe that is incorrect.
I don't know how to bypass this, I would like to try and figure it out if I can, but I've never had a unit that was in a "locked" state to play around with.

Probably. I don't think it would be a very complex code scheme though.Originally Posted by itisjustme
Supposedly it will go 150 hrs before it needs the key. I just hope it powers up to test at first. I just wanted it for a collectable. I see to much KA around here to really have any luck testing it.
The DSP is pretty much useless without that key. I was going to bid on that one you won off Ebay but the key was a huge deal
RIP Duncan my BELOVED black lab son 8/7/99-3/23/11. I will miss you DEARLY.

LET THE BIRTH OF MANY TESTING GROUPS HAPPEN!
You want to know what it is like doing something for the love and passion and not for the mighty dollar then look up GOL!
buyradardetectors rocks!
What is this Key you guys talk about?
Do you Have a picture of this detector?
