Question about Uniden TRU8885-2 Cordless Phone
The older Tru8885 phones will not work with the new base unit. My recommendation would be to ebay those and then buy new ones or find replacements for your new base on ebay also.

The very same thing has happened to me AGAIN! I don't remember ever returning that base, buit I'm not sure why I have Tru-8885-2 because the old base I have just says Tru8885. Would that have worked? This base I bought through Ebay says Tru8885-3HS. All I get is "out of range" even when I'm right next to the base just like before. Any help would be much appreciated!

1.Check that the base unit's AC adapter is plugged into the both the base unit and electrical outlet firmly.
2.Wipe the base unit's handset holder's connectors and the connectors on the bottom of the handset with a soft cloth/rag or pencil eraser to remove any loose dust and dirt from the metal connectors.

A BAD ELECTRICAL STORM SEEMS TO HAVE KNOCKED OUT THE BASE W/ANSWERING MACHINE, CALLER ID & THE EXTRA PHONE. THE SET IS ABOUT 3 YEARS OLD. I GET NOTHING BUT A LITTLE STATIC ON BOTH PHONES. I UNPLUGGED BOTH PHONES AND RESET THE TIME ON THE ANSWERING MACHINE BUT IT DIDN'T HELP..
