    Default Escort X50 power cord on Beltronics V940??

    Wondering if it would work? This would enable me to have the visual indicator and mute button at dash level.

    The smartcord with the visual alerts and mute button do NOT work on the V940. I called Bel directly to ask them this same question a few weeks ago.

    For future reference, try the search button at the top of the page under radardetector.net. This topic has been posted a lot.

    Although Junior18 seems to have a problem with it, I have been able to work both units with different cords with no problems.

    I guess it depends on whether he was talking about using the coiled smartplug or just the plain cord. This was my response from an email directly from Bel:
    Thanks for your interest in Beltronics!
    No, the SmartCord will not work with either version of the V940.
    Regards,
    Beltronics Customer Service

    works for me. got it in the car right now. escort smartcord with bel v940. mute works, visual alert works, power on light works. they all use the same phone type plug, same wiring. and you can even get the passport g-timer cord and it works with beltronics/escorts and vice-versa. all it has is a different sticker face.

    Thanks for the replies. Guess the site has had problems the last day or two, thus the reason I could not search without it timing out. I'm off in search of a smart cord now. I was hoping it would work.

    rick_rolla, say hello to Pierce County (and Kitsap) for me. Just left there after 13 years of rain.

    Picked up the Beltronics direct wire smart cord for running it high on the glass via Roy's site. Almost bought the Escort smart cord with the yellow and blue, but decided to keep it matching with the V940. Thanks again!
