Why aren't BT master socket extensions working?

BT installed a fibre optic modem to a telephne extension outlet using a BT Master socket. The modem works fine and I connected a 3rd party WiFi transmitter/receiver. Again good connectivity throughout the house. Also, the telephone plugged into the BT master socket works fine. BUT - no other ongoing telephone extensions work at all! I tried talking to BT but they were useless - said the problem was with the extensions. I responed that the extensions worked fine before BT installed the master socket. This was greeted by silence. I am concerned that the master socket does not support ongoing extensions except the one plugged into the socket itself. Is my conclusion correct?

Take the two covers off and see if the cables to the other extensions have been disconnected

If the second handset works ok on the base and the first handset doesn't, then you are right...the fault lies with the first handset. There are batteries ( special type ) in the handset, it sound as if either the batteries are dead, or not charged ( try charging them for 12 hours on the good base station ) or the connection is bad.

Every phone socket must have a working microfilter pluged as shown on the image below.

I think you need to change your microfilters as they might have blown.

even something as small as an electrical extension or a faulty fan lead can cause this problem

motherboard and a hard drive any leads between them will fail before your motherboard or your hard drive if its a flat ribbon 40 pin type IDE replace it this will be the first to fail check all electrical extensions make sure they are securely seated even the cd/dvd floppy drives need to have current go through make sure these drives are working

How do you bench bleed a replacement master cylinder?

Put the new master in a vice or some way to hold it upright. connect hoses to the fittings where the lines connect and run the hoses in the reservoir and pump the master till there are no more bubbles. You can pump the master by using a screwdriver or socket extension and push in on the end where the peddle pushes.

I want to change my old telephone socket for a new one, i have the BT line with a orange and white wires coming in and i have an extension with six wires coming from the box located in place numbered 1 to...

With BT there are only TWO wires, Tip & Ring... these wires simply go daisy chain from socket to socket, they ALL go on 2 & 5 in the socket. ONLY the FIRST socket should have a capacitor, and be the "Master" socket. The "LINE" also goes onto that 2 & 5 in the Master too.

1999 GMC Sierra brake problem

When you change the master cylinder it is best to gravity bleed first, then proceed to the pedal technique.

Gravity bleeding is when you just open the valve and let gravity pull the fluid down.

Keep in mind you must "prime" the master cylinder first before installing it, did you do that?

Priming the master cylinder is where you put it in a vise gently, you then take apaptors and screw into the outlets, then take tubes from the adaptors back into the resoirvor. You fill the resorvoir up with fluid and take a 3/8 extension for a socket and push the piston in and out slowly until there are no more air bubbles.

After this procedure you gravity bleed the brakes, then go on to the pedal technique.
