I cleared my pro-82 scanner. Program button is not working to let me reprogram. Help.

As long as all frequencies have been cleared, try initializing the scanner. This will return everything to the original factory settings.

To INITIALIZE:
- Turn the scanner OFF, then switch it back ON.
- Hold down the TUNE/CLEAR button.
- While continuing to hold the TUNE/CLEAR button down, insert a pointed object such as a paperclip or the tip of a pen into the RESET opening on the side of the scanner, and press the RESET button inside the opening. The display should go blank.
- When the display comes back on, press the TUNE/CLEAR button again. The scanner should now be ready to accept programming.

Need the manual for your scanner? You can download/print it here:

My phone has a blank screen

Are both displays blank, or only one? Is there any backlighting coming on? Any cracks visible? Was there any damage (dropping, etc.) that you remember around the time they went blank?

If you determine that your phone is actually turning on, do the other functions of the phone work? In other words, can you dial a number and hit "Send" and successfully make a call? Can you get sound out of the external speakers by pressing the little "speaker" key at the lower right of the inside keyboard?

If everything seems to work and the ONLY problem is the displays being blank, it is possible to replace the display module. If you have some electronics experience, and you are considering doing it yourself, see this thread for a little more detail about my experience (I did it successfully.) But you'd want to know that the display is the *only* problem before committing to replacing it.

Otherwise, there's not a lot of repair you can do on these things yourself.

Blank screen goes in and out

My 2096 was doing the same thing with a blank screen. IF, your scanner is scanning normally and the dim button still dims your display, your problem could be the same as mine was. This worked for me and got my display working like new again. First thing to do is to take the covers both top and bottom off to expose your scanners insides.Next, once you can see the inside of your scanner you will see a ribbon cable connected to the main board and also soldered to the display. Take the ribbon out of its coupling connector and gently clean the contacts on the ribbon with a cuetip with alcohol on it, also clean the solder joints on the display face that connect the ribbon to the display with the cuetip and alcohol. Ii then reassembled everything, ribbon back into its connector and made sure the clamping mechanisim on the ribbon was securely holding the ribbon. I pluged the power supply into it and turned it on before reassemblig the case covers to see if it would work. Bingo, it worked like new again. Hope it works for you ! Jim

Do a google search for GRE america store. They have parts for your radio. Their GRE 295 is the same (different in name only) as your pro 95. I think they are in Belmont shores here in the Los Angeles area.
Hope this helps.

Msg-blinks no display

Hi Dan, Yes it is a very nice system, but like any device it is sensitive to electrical storms and power fluctuations. A surge or sag (AC power going up or down), can cause the sensitive digital chips to get damaged, and from my experience if you have tried resetting the unit, and your msg lites continue to flicker and the LCD is blank, it has some serious damage and needs repair or replacement.
