may be there is a loose contact with the ringer speaker... or may be it s gone... just get the ringer speaker changed from nearest technician .....

may be due to accidents such has falling of the cell to the ground or falling into water has destroyed it or it is in miscontact....

here's what my instructions say about turning off the ringer:

Ringer high/low/off Shortcut

Apart from the setting in the main menu, there is a shortcut to set the ringer. Make sure the phone is OFF (not in talk mode).

1. Press the #RINGER/PAUSE button to go to the RINGER VOLUME menu. RINGER 1HIGH shows in the display. 1HIGH is the default.

2. Use the cid/vol (- or +) button or the touch-tone pad on the handset to scroll to 1HIGH, 2LOW, or 3OFF.

3. Press the #RINGER/PAUSE button to save your selection. You will hear a confirmation tone.

To turn off the ringer on my Vtech cordless phones, I have had to turn off the base ringer & all handsets.

Base Ringer:
Press Menu and listen carefully, continue to press menu until you hear "Base Ringer, to change base ringer press change", hit change and it will say "Off", then you must hit the PLAY/STOP button to save your change.
Handset:
Press the program button and use your "up/down" key to cycle until you see the Ringer selection. Press SELECT and then use your "up/down" key(s) to cycle until the OFF selection is see on the handset screen. Press select.

To turn your ringer back on, you do the following. For your handset, you push Menu, scroll to ringer settings, then push select, Press select again for ringer volume, then scroll up to turn on and increase the ringer volume. Then press Save once its at the desired volume. To change your base ringer, while it is not in use, push the ringer up button until you hear the desired setting. That should fix your problems.
