The red light message/ringer lamp at top will not go out

If the red message/ringer lamp never lights up, the solder connection to the LED may be broken, or (more rarely) the LED may have broken inside.

when the other ringer patterns are set in your PBX the lamp may not flash.

Hold the RINGER button down for 3-5 seconds until you see the red Ring Off light on the top right of the hand held go off.

Press the MESSAGE button and look at the display. It will tell you where the message came from and one of the soft keys will be ERASE or CLEAR.

The manual is available for free download from www.manualslib.com
A Google search on "vtech t2326 manual" will take you right there .... follow their site instructions,
enter the "spam protect" numbers and choose "download the .pdf file" Be careful of clicking on the
advertising that might take you into strange areas for other purposes.
To set the Vtech T2326 ringer:
there are only four ringer tone/volume choices plus "off" available
1. Press the PROG end of the "SELECT/PROG" rocker switch.
The display will light and show "DIRECTORY"
2. Press the right side top button "VOL +/DIR"
The display will change to "SPEED DIAL"
3. Press the right side top button "VOL +/DIR" again The display will change to "RINGER: 1" ( or "RINGER: 2 or : 3 or : 4 or : OFF" )
4. Press the SELECT end of the "SELECT/PROG" rocker switch.
The "RINGER: [number] ( 1 - 4 or OFF )" will blink and the ringer will sound.
5. Press the right side top button "VOL +/DIR" The display will change from "RINGER: 1" to "RINGER: 2" and the sound will change accordingly.
6. Press the right side top button "VOL +/DIR" again. The display will change from "RINGER: 2" to "RINGER: 3" and the sound will change accordingly.
7. Press the right side top button "VOL +/DIR" again. The display will change from "RINGER: 3" to "RINGER: 4" and the sound will change accordingly.
8. Press the right side top button "VOL +/DIR" again. The display will change from "RINGER: 4" to "RINGER: OFF" and the sound will cease accordingly.
9. Press the right side top button "VOL +/DIR" again. The display will change from "RINGER: OFF" to "RINGER: 1" and the sound will change accordingly.
10. ...and so on, cycling through the four choices: when you decide to select one, press the "SELECT" end
of the central "SELECT/PROG" rocker switch.
11. The display light will go out, the phone will chirp in acceptance, and be ready to use the chosen ringer. --
To preload names & numbers into the DIRECTORY is a bit more arduous but not difficult; there is
a limit of 10 entries after which attempting to add another will result in a "MEMORY FULL" alert
being shown. Hint: during name entry, the "VOL -/CID" button will backspace/erase letters and the
"VOL +/DIR" button will enter blank spaces. Letter selection is familiar to text messaging ie, the letter B
is a result of "22" being keyed, the letter R is "777" etc.

Good luck !

It's not permanent, you just have to know how to turn it off :-)

When the phone is idle, the light is lit red and a 7636 will
say Message Waiting. At each phone, do not pick up the handset, but press MESSAGE. Your display will have who left the message on the top line and .EXIT CLEAR under soft keys 2 and 3.

Guess what :-) Press CLEAR and the message is erased. When the queue is empty, the light will go out.

Message/Ringer Lamp: The Message/
Ringer lamp informs you visually that you
have a message or a call.
When you receive a call, the lamp
flashes depending on the ringing pattern.
When the ringing pattern is set to Single
(Slow flash), Double (Moderate flash), or
Triple (Rapid flash) in your PBX, the lamp
flashes. When the other ringing patterns
are set in your PBX, the lamp may not
flash. (e.g., S-Double, Call Waiting
Tone1).
When someone has left you a message,
the lamp is lit continuously.

Please note that the above indicates that ring patterns are set in the the PBX. These are issues that require a real person to sit at the main system and program the features that users need. I hope you have an I.T. person that knows your phone system. If you don't, you'll have to find a communications company in your area that can program your system. Thanks for using Fixya.

See the button labeled MESSAGE? Push it and read the display. Now for fun, call someone and push MESSAGE when it rings. WoW!.

Your phones do other tricks. *700 plus your ext cancels all Messages.

Go to another phone and dial *701 plus the extension of the 7667. Does the MW light work? If it does and all the others work from VM, then you probably missed an assocation of the mailbox with the extension. It's fixed from the console if it's a TVA system or from the mailbox manager's box, 999.


Carl

There's a message waiting. Press the MESSAGE button and look at the display. It will tell you who left the message.

You can clear all messages by *700 and your extension.
