Unable to change handset registrations from old base to new.

Suggest you reset handset and register again with base.

Instructions from manual...
Resetting Handsets If you have trouble with a handset or if you want to replace one, clear the registration information from the base and the handset: 1. Press & hold END and # at the same time until you see the System Reset menu. 2.If you still have the base the handset is registered to, select Deregister HS, then select the handset you want to reset. If you don't have that base anymore, select Base Unavailable. 3. To confirm, select Yes. The handset displays Handset not registered. Registering Handsets If you see a "not registered" message on a handset, you must register it to a base before using it. 1. Place the handset in the base; the display should say Handset Registering. 2.Wait until the display says Registration Complete (about 30 seconds), then pick up the handset and press TALK/FLASH. 3.If you don't hear a dial tone or the display says Registration Failed, charge the battery completely, then try again.

The KX-TGA401 is a handset for specific Panasonic cordless telephone systems. Connecting the handset requires registering (pairing) it with the base and if the base can support another handset. First make sure that the base is plugged into an active phone line (land line) and that the power adapter is plugged in and working properly. Charge the handset before attempting the registration process.

Then make sure that the phone system is in standby (no calls). Press and hold the Locator button on the base for about 5 seconds (wait until the tone sounds). If all of the handsets that are already registered ring, press and release the Locator button and then press and hold it again. Once you hear the registration tone (some models), place the new handset in the charger on the base. Wait for the long beep and the registered symbol to appear.

If the not registered symbol appears, try registering by using the handset menu. Press Menu # 1 3 0 (the key below 9 and individual number keys) on the handset. Press and hold the locator button until you hear the registration tone as above. Then press Select and Save on the handset within 90 seconds of hearing the registration tone. Wait for the handset and base to complete the registration process. You'll hear a long beep.

The first registration method is given in the manual for the handset, http://help.panasonic.ca/viewing/ALL/KX-TGA401/OI/TGA401_PNQX2390ZA/TGA401_PNQX2390ZA.pdf. The second is from the page 31 of the manual for the KX-TG653x (KX-TG6531 base) system, ftp://ftp.panasonic.com/telephone/om/kx-tg6511_mul_om.pdf . The KX-TGA401 handset works with other bases as well. You may want to check the manual for your phone system in case there are differences. Other compatible phone systems are the KX-TG401x, KX-TG403x, and KX-TG651x.

I hope this helps.

(I make sure that the land line is active by checking for dial tone with an old corded phone.)

The following is taken directly from the SSE37 owners' manual:

Good luck!

When you reset a handset (or if you buy a new one1, that handset displays a Handset Not Registered message. If you see this message on a handset, you need to register it to a base before you can use it.

First make to get a compatible handset.

For the Uniden D1660-2, the compatible handsets are DCX160 and DWX337. Make sure that you have not exceeded the number of handsets that the phone can support. The D1660-2 can support 12 handsets unless you use any DWX337 handsets. Then the limit is 6. (If you have more handsets, you will need to deregister some of them first.) Then allow the handset to charge. If the handset is reading "not registered", then place it into the base unit. You should see "Handset Registering" for about 30 seconds; then it will read Registration Complete. The manual for the Uniden D1660-2 is available here: http://www.uniden.com/content/ebiz/uniden/resources/ownersmanuals/D1660-2om.pdf . This is the most common Registration for Uniden phones; there are a few exceptions (depending on the base or the replacement handset). Check the appropriate manual (see below to find the manuals).

For the DECT4096, press Menu on the base and then navigate to Handset Register. When you see Handset Registering on the base display, press and hold # on the handset to be registered until you see Handset Registering. (It takes about 2 seconds.) After the display changes to Handset Registered, check for dial tone.

On a few Uniden phones, there is a Page/Handst Register button on the base. On those you navigate through the Handset menu to Handset Register (Menu > Handset menu > Handset Registration). Then press and hold the Page button until you hear a beep. Then wait for the registration to be completed.

Most Uniden manuals are available here: http://www.uniden.com/scat/cordlessphones_mnl . Select your type of Uniden phone and scroll through the list to your model or use the search box to directly search for your phone and the manual.

I hope this helps.

User Manual Available Here

First, does another phone get a dial tone at the jack in question? (I prefer an old corded phone for this test since it is unlikely to have some of the problems of a cordless.) Try a new phone cord between the base and the jack. If there is no dial tone, try the test phone at other jacks. If there is no dial tone at any jack with either phone, find where your telephone service comes in and open the service box. If you are lucky and have a fairly new connection, the service box will have RJ-11 jacks. Plug your test phone into the jack and check for dial tone. Otherwise you will need the phone company to do this test. If there is no dial tone at the service box, your phone company will fix the problem for you for free.

If your test phone works:
Make sure that the base is plugged into a working outlet (no tripped circuit breaker, turned off power strip). Next check that the handsets are registered with the base. To register the handset, press the Find HS button on the base (below the in use indicator) for 4 seconds, then press # on the handset. (Our cordless phones once lost their registration during an extended power outage.) You can force deregistration by pressing and holding Find HS for 10 seconds. The In Use light should come on and flash. Then release the Find HS button and then press and release it again while the In Use light is blinking. You may need to try unplugging the base after pressing Flash/Talk and then Off/Clear before deregistering the handsets. The register the handsets.

You can Mute the microphone on the handset with the Mute button. To silence the ringer, press Menu/Select when the handset is not in use. Use the up/down arrow keys to select Ringers then press Menu/Select. Then press Menu/Select to choose Ringer Volume. Use the up/down arrows to change the volume and then press Menu/Select to confirm and save the setting. This should not change the ability to hear the dial tone.

If your test phone works at the service connection but nowhere else, then you have a wiring problem inside. Check exposed wires if you have them. Your phone company will offer to fix the issue for a fee. If the problem is at one jack, open the faceplate and check for loose wires. Some faceplates use a keystone with a punch-down tool to secure the wires. Others just wrap the wire around a screw for each pin.

If the handsets are registered and the base has power, then the cordless phone has problems. If it is under warranty, have it fixed. Otherwise, replace it; they aren't made to be user serviced.
