Generic problem for all Radar Detectors

I no longer get a (by 2 users)

posted by oldguybobh on May 18, 2008


I no longer get a bright display. The display stays on dim even when I switch to bright. I cannot see the screen at all during the day.
I have a Cobra XRS 9930 that has developed a very dim display. Pushing the display button tells me that I am on bright or dim, but the display is unreadable and unchanged. Any ideas?

you need to go to user settings and switch the dim settings. i suggest you switch it to bright instead of dim in the user menu/settings. sadly this is answered by a 16 year old. =D.

The xrs 9930 is the same as the xrs 9985.
Cobra makes this model to sell only to radio shack.
My display went out!
I took the rd apart. Very delicate part.
The display part# reads xrs9930 not 9985.
This part is the display and speaker all in one part.
My guess is that it over heated. burned out !
Im trying to get the replacment part from radio shack.
If not il send it in for repair.
If it's more than 35$ then no its trash.
Il get a bel!
