Message light continually lit

The message light stays on after retrieving new messages. No new messages, no saved messages, but the light is on! Any idea how I can fix? Thanks in advance, Joan

    I have a GE Dect 6.0 Cordless Phone with the same problem. After I've retrieved all my messages, the message indicator light still blinks. Even after I've deleted all the stored messages I had, it still blinks...drives me crazy thinking that I must have missed someone's phone call when I haven't! If someone could please give me the solution, that would be great! Thanks!

There are different reasons your message light may come on besides voice mail calls. The situation that started the message light needs to be completed before it will go out. I cannot be sure on your particular phone but quite often when I see this problem on other business phone systems it is because someone on another phone in the system tried to intercom and there was no answer setting off the message waiting indicator. (This may require other buttons to be pressed by the caller making it a rare occurrence) If so, you may have to press the message button to return the intercom call. The trick is the other phone needs to be answered as well or the system will not shut off the MSG light. Are there any unusual messages, icons, etc.. on the LCD? If this is not the case, you MAY be able to force the light off by leaving yourself another message and then retrieving the message.

My Uniden M/N:D1788-2 is not working correctly. It will only ring once before machine picks up & red light continues flashing.

Likely the two ring answer is "toll saver" You'll need to retrieve new messages. Once all new messages have been reviewed, it should return to the programmed number of rings, see "ring time" in the manual.

ALL messages may be deleted as follows;
delete all messages With the phone in standby, press Delete; press Delete again to confirm.


If answering system messages have been retrieved, a continuing flashing indicator could be your voice mail service;

Voice Message Notification • If you subscribe to a voice mail service, your phone can notify you when you have a new message. This feature supports Frequency-Shift Keying (FSK) notification. Contact your voice mail provider for information. • When you have new messages, the display shows a message icon. After you listen to your messages, the message icon turns off. If it doesn't, you can reset it. With the phone in standby, open the menu and select Global Setup; select VMWI Reset, then select Yes
A copy of the manual is available from Uniden;

Light stays on in the base unit and light flashes on handset. No messages--all have been retrieved.

If your charge light is flashing and you have no messages on your answering system, you may have voicemail. Voicemail is provided by your telephone company and they would be able to assist you with retrieving those messages.

How do I retrieve messages from another extension when the "message" light is on?

If you dial 165 to retrieve voice mail messages, you can dial 165 #6 * and the extension that the MW light is lit on. It will be just as if you dialed 165 or pressed the MESSAGE button on that phone.

Message Light flashing continously

Resetting the New Message LED
If the LED remains on after you’ve retrieved your messages, you may need to reset
the indicators. With the phone is in standby mode, press and hold find handset on
the base until the paging sound stops (about 5 seconds).
