Cordless phone charginng

The manufacturer recomends replacing the batteries every year. I have several phones that have had the same batteries for 2 or more years, but the time they hold a charge starts to drop after a year or so.

Have you tried replacing the batterys with new rechargables? if not open up the back and replace old batterys with new ones, just see if it works with a normal non rechargable batterys if it does buy some new rechargable, other than that your base i.e. charger may be faulty most likely it is the batterys.

I have the same problem. Replacing the battery solves it, but for about 6 months, then the new battery holds less and less charge.

Sound to me like you just need to replace the battery pack. Radio shack is a great place for phone batteries. If not, try www.batteriesplus.com
Good luck.

I had the same problem so I got a new battery & separate charger to charge both new & old, then replace as required.

Check up power supply / Battery.If battery operated replace with new one.Need to check the main unit battery/ power supply.

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Okay, this solved it for me, so maybe it'll help others.

Basically, you just need to re-register the phones by placing each one on the base unit and leaving it there for at least five seconds after the charge/in use LED light stops flashing.

According to the manual, it's necessary to re-register each phone after a power failure or if the batteries get very low or die. If you're experiencing the "connecting..." problem, this will probably fix it!

I always tell people NOT to buy new batteries to try and fix their cordless phone. It seems to rarely solve the problem and you are usually better off just spending the money on a new phone. Unfortunately 5 years is a long time for cordless phones these days. There are so many brands, and so many thousands of models, it's impossible to keep track of them all.
