Where can I find a replacement line cord? - HEWLETT-PACKARD HP 2140 Fax

Hi Amy,

I have two of these phones. The feature set is really good. The only thing missing is a "Voice Mail" indicator light. You have to pick up the line and listen for the intermittent dial tone.

The other problem is that they are not very reliable. Both of my originals developed problems with the answering machine portion, but were replaced under warranty. Have had issues with one of the replacements also and now use it with an external two-line answering machine.

Regarding your problem, there are a few possibilities. Not all phone cords are created equal. The cord that goes from the wall to the phone uses a plug/jack called RJ-11. An RJ-11 connector has room for four contacts. The contacts themselves are just gold-plated wires.

Take a very close look at all of the cords you are using, as there are two different types that look nearly identical. A single line cord will only have two wires inside, and the RJ-11 connector will only have the two center pins filled with the gold contacts. A two-line cord has four wires and the RJ-11 connectors will have four gold contacts at each end.

Once you are sure that your cords are all two-line (four gold contacts on the RJ-11 connectors), the next thing is to understand how two different lines are put into one cord.

The first (main) line will occupy the two center contacts. To add a second line, they need to connect to the two outer contacts. It may be that you need to re-wire the wall jack on one of the lines.

If they are both wired to the two center contacts, the splitter cannot do its job. The way to tell this is to make sure that each wall receptacle will give a dial tone when plugged into a single line telephone. If that is the case you will need to re-wire one of the wall outlets.

You would need to remove the wires from the center two slots on one line and insert them into the outer two slots. Take a look at what you have with regards to cords and the results of your tests with a single line phone. If you need to rewire a wall outlet, I can walk you through that.

In most cases this error has something to do with the printers LVPS (Low Voltage Power Supply ).
If the printer is connected to power surge, try to connect it to an outlet from the wall. Do an An AC power check - check the AC line voltage at the end of the AC line cord. If the Ac line cord is incorrect, replace the cord.
Also check if the cord is in good condition. if not, replace the cord. If you still get the same errror, you may need to replace the printers' LVPS.

try to open the terminal box of your flat iron use the ohmmeter test one prod on line one of service cord of plug to line one if you got a resistance or continuity it means line one of your cord is ok together with the line 2 test it possible your cord damage or try to test the heating element if has a resistance it means good or try to adjust the setting on rotate knob or fuse busted replace it.

mcdevito75 here, Best bet, Look for any appliance repair center in your area for replacement electrical line. If your handy yourself or know a handy person, simply match up the electrical cord with another at your local hardware store, Splice the new cord into the old one.

Remove the starter housing from the engine, then unwind the rest of the cord from the reel. With both parts of the cord, measure the total length of cord plus some extra for knots. Take one of the remnants with you to a saw service shop for replacement cord purchase. You might even take the entire starter mechanism and have them rewind the cord for you if you don't feel comfortable about installing the new cord. When done, just reinstall the starter on the saw and attempt a start. Good luck!

If it is a corded phone it might be the rj9 connectors from the handset to the base unit. Replace the curly cord and make sure it is plugged in firmly. ( Most cords works with most phones ). It might also be the rj11 connectors on the cord from the phone to the jack / wall socket. Again replace the cord.
If it is a cordless phone also try to change the channel ( usually a button marked CH or Channel)

If you know how to solder wires then the cord is certainly replaceable. My cat chewed through the cord on my BeyerDynamic headphones, but I was able to order a replacement from them, take the earcups apart, remove the old leads and solder in the new cord lines.

You could try calling the customer service line for Sennheiser and see if they can send you a replacement, or you could just pick up a generic cord from Radio Shack or an electronic parts supplier.

It probably means that you only have one line attached to your phone. Either the wall jack is only enabled for one line, or your phone cord is a two-wire cord and should be replaced.

Looks as if either the line cord is plugged into the wrong jack, or the cord itself may be broken. Last to check is the relay. To do this,1st unplug the line cord, then unplug the power cord. Wait 15sec, then plug in the power cord. After it has booted up and in the ready mode, then plug the line cord back in. If the machine is still not working, get an estimate to replace the relay. Usually you'll find it better to replace the machine.
