"searching" message on both phones continuously (by 6 users)


posted by phip on Feb 11, 2008


I bought a philips cd245 duo phone a couple of weeks ago and its been fine. Today i noticed that both phones had a message on their screens saying "searching". There is no dial tone and they do not ring when someone calls
I have the same problem.

Same issue. Sometimes the problem doesn't start until there is an incoming message.

Hi,

I also have the same problem. I have tried everything as per the manual, Master reset, Un-register and then Re-register but both handsets seem to be locked in the Searching mode.

The other thing i have noticed (not sure how relevant) is that the phone socket on the base station only has 2 brass pins where my other BT cordless phone has 4. The lead that connects to this plug also has pins (wires red and green). I tried the phone lead i got with the Philips phones with my BT phone and it does not work; so i tried by BT lead with the Philips phone and unfortunately it did not also work.

Does anybody out there know the solution to this frustrating problem?
