Only shows-- 1ch 000 000o -- l/o and scan, no buttons work and will not reset. Has static but that's it. Any way to internally reset this scanner?
Hi, If a simple reset will not correct the error, you may need to re-initialize the scanner (but of course this will delete all your stored memories and presets). To Reset - push a pin through a hole at the side of the scanner and press on the recessed button inside; To Initialize - power off, press TUNE button (leftmost third from the bottom), without releasing TUNE button power on and do a RESET again a bit longer. Wait a couple of seconds (till after the LCD display blinked). Release RESET button then release TUNE button. Try the scanner. If buttons don't work, you may need to verify that KEYLOCK is off. A more comprehensive instruction is detailed at http://support.radioshack.com/support_electronics/doc69/69887.pdf If this does not work, you may need to seek the services of a qualified professional as it needs circuit analysis in the logic section. Good luck and kind regards.

I kept it plugged in for 1/2 an hour, then it cleared itself! Works normally again. Thanks for the response..
