NOT RECEVING OR TRANSMITING

Tr 16 or IC 2 is not getting power or has failed.

The IC-V8000 is a high power (75 watts) 2 metre radio, it will draw about 15 amps on transmit. Also you might want to make sure your antenna SWR is low about 1.5:1. If you are not receiving anything at all I suspect you may have an antenna issue and this will also effect your transmit as well as the radio will protect its self by reducing the output to almost nothing if the antenna has a high SWR. If you don't have an antenna analyzer check with another amateur radio operator they may know someone who does. Your local amateur radio club most likely will have someone who help you solving your antenna problem.

Check and be certain you are not on the weather band. if you are you can not transmit and if you are not set to the proper weather station you will hear nothing. Sound like your problem.

maybe your cell phone micphone have problem.

hi,where is the button to change the light from amber to green 2100H

Define "locked" Also, you can check out http://www.batlabs.com/gpman/top.html and maybe that will help.

1 check and clean mic switch
2 check and repair wires in mic plug
3 if preamp mic replace battery

Its most likely was programmed with a rx but no tx. Meaning it can recieve but not transmit, you can fix this with the programing software.

This sounds like a radio transmiting problem. This problem shows up first as "choppy transmit" where custimers complane of you sounding choppy or "under water". Google "KX-TGA400B choppy transmit" to find out more.

1. Program the ABC switch as zone select.
2. Program each 'personality' into the proper zone (eg A1, A2..., B1, B2..., C1, C2..., etc)
3. Load the codeplug into the radio.
