Hi Benjamin,
Kenwood TK-2200. The light comes on when you press PTT button, indicates you are transmitting.
The light goes out when you release the PTT button, if itgoes out during transmission, but your message gets through to your contact, then I don't see the problem.
If the light goes out during a transmission and you are still able to communicate, Don't worry, be happy, it's just a minor glitch with the light, no the radio.
As you haven't given me the details that I have guessed for you, I hope I have been helpful.
Cheers,
Peter

Hi,
A couple of things you can try:
1. Use electronic contact cleaner (spray type) on the PTT switch;
2. Use an external speaker/microphone and/or handsfree VOX headset
3. Replace the PTT switch. 4 solder points. Might not be easy but doable.
The last would require that you remove the defective PTT switch and use that as per sample when looking for replacement. Some printers uses the same type of switch. Familiarity with electronic components/circuitry, use of a DVM and a soldering iron would also be required.
Hope this be of some idea/help. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.
Good luck and kind regards.

swap batteries if does not work this unit should need repair or replace, display blinking can be produced for power failure ( battery, contacts, circuits) or can be a controller issue.
SOURCE: TK 380 not transmiting
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.
