Replaced battery in handset. Got a dial tone and all was well. Picked up handset later in the day and it was dead. Unplugged and reattached everything - no luck.

ck the red and green wire that goes to the system those 2 make the phones work just do the main main phone first , , it does not sound like the phones are broke you are not getting a dial tone due to no connection to the line itself

You can find the manual on Uniden's website, on the support page. Troubleshooting in that manual would be your best bet.

Hi,

Try reset your wireless phones, Turn off the phone, remove the AC adapter, press and hold the page/call button that is on the phone and plug back your Ac adapter, this process will help reset the phone and help fix all abnormalities.

Check the Battery on the Handset. remove the pwr frm the base unit n connect aft 30 sec. aft this if it still says the same msg, then the handset needs to be replaced.

When there is no dial tone the problem could be dead batteries in your handsets, or an unplugged base, or a problem with the phone lines outdoors [which only the phone company can fix]. Check your phone first, then make sure the base is plugged in. If all is ok with your phone then call the phone company and tell them you have no dial tone. Regards, Joe
PS please rate my answer. Thank you.

I am sure you have solved this problem by now. For others who might face the same problem...just unplug the batterry of the handset and plug it in..wow it works!!:))

I unplugged the base unit and took a battery out of the handset. I then put the battery back in the handset and replugged the base unit. This corrected the problem.

some DECT handsets have an internal fuse and please swap the batteries to check if both batteries are Ok

Are you plugged into the LINE port?

All you have to do is put the phone that does not get a dial tone on the MAIN CHARGING BASE for 20 seconds! it will then sync up!

Good luck!
