My Solo S2, after passing one particular Ka unit in town, continues to do a 2 bar chip about once every second or so until I turn it off. Can't reset it any other way.
Am I the only one?
I wonder why only from this one unit?

I had that problem with a Escort 4200 which required service.
:shock: :?: Would you put the unit in EXPert Meter Mode and try to observe the display and try again. If you can, are you seeing multiple signals, ie Ka and X. Is the unit continuing to "chirp" and display Ka?Originally Posted by theGman
I'll look for the manual and try to do that. I have it set for "regular"?, Ka,K and X now.

To get into the Programming mode....hold down the (M) mute button and one of the up/down VOL buttons next to it. Then step through the options using the up or down VOL until you get to the MeterSTD option...then press the M mute button to change to the MeterEXP mode. Wait for a few seconds and the unit will return to its normal operations.Originally Posted by theGman
:wink:
I think it needs service.
Me too; I'll find the manual on the Programming mode...on mine, holding down the mute and volume takes you to volume level.
I don't think prgramming has ANYTHING to do with it.......
I don't either.
Putting the unit in EXPERT meter mode could show you if you are actually receiving a signal that causes the symptom that you've reported. You should see the Ka with a signal strength bar, if you're getting other signals you may see those as well. Something like this
Ka | X .
That display would show a strong Ka and a weak X. If you see multiple signals reported or if you continue to see a signal reported after you pass the Ka.....cover the horn with your hand and see if it stops...
If it doesn't then your unit is generating an internal spur and it needs servicing.........or its getting blasted by an external signal, cell phone, transmission tower, something....
