Check TEL line - Uniden Cordless Phone

Check Tel Line means that the phone is not getting a dial tone. Unless you connect the KX-TGD560 base to a RJ-11 phone cord going to a RJ-11 jack with a working telephone service, this message will continue.

I've never used the cell phone link without having a land line connection. The Link-to-cell option for using the handset on Cell 1 (or Cell 2) may still work. You need to have a compatible cell phone close to the base. The phone needs to be positioned where it gets good signal strength. Test this yourself.

I hope this helps.

There could have been a short or ground in the telephone line (Tip and Ring). Please check the connection of the Tel line cord in the junction box. If your Tel line consist of 3 wires, disconnect all three wires, lift the handset, connect only 2 wires going to Exch Line or Trunk line (Local Tel Company) until you hear the dial tone. Leave the other wire disconnected.
This helped me isolate the problem, I hope this applies to you.
Best regards.

I assumed when you say all phones are operating means there's power and are charging.
1. There could be some phones that are loading the Tel line. Disconnect all phones and plug it one by one while checking the dial tone. If all phones gives busy tone, there coulb be a problem in the Trunk line or the Tel Company line.
2. There could be a short or resistance in the line. Check the connection in junction box between your house and the Tel Company cable.
3. If you have an analog Tel set, you can check the dial tone directly from Tel Company cable that comes in to your house.

I hope this helps.
Best Regards.

check if the LINE is connected in the RIGHT JACK (LINE), not in the TEL jack. Check the panel or display if it is in (FAX OR AUTO) if the mod is in TEL it won't receive.

have you paid you bill? Seriously ring your provider and get them to check your line out.

The telephone cord may not be connected correctly.

1. Unplug both ends of the cord connecting the wall jack to the telephone base.
2. Insert one end of the cord to the TEL LINE jack on the base.
3. Make sure that the cord is inserted correctly in the TEL LINE jack on the phone.
4. When you insert the cord you should hear a click.
5. Insert the other end of the cord to the wall jack.
6. Make sure cord is inserted correctly.
7. You should hear a click.

CHECK THE CABLE IS IN THE CORRECT SOCKET AT THE BACK THE CABLE NEEDS TO BE PUT IN THE LINE SOCKET NOT THE TEL SOCKET AND ALSO MAKE SURE THE RX OR RECEIVE MODE IS SET TO FAX MODE IF IT IS JUST A FAX LINE OR TEL FAX MODE FOR USE WITH PHONE.. THE TROUBLE IS USUALY WHEN YOU ARE USING THE FAX ON A LINE USED FOR TEL USE AS WELL..__

Kindly check your incomming line connected in Line In port of machine . And change your receive mode as TEL/FAX .

Again the same will happen the probelm related to its Line Interface Unit. Change it and check, your problem must be solve.

You can remove your telephone line from the base unit and fix it to stranded telephone unit and hear the dial tone.If it heard then some inductor or else part may be broken inside the base unit due high current surge.If the dial tone didn't heard from the other phone also check for the corroded line cord or modular box fault with the tel line.There should be 30 Volt-50Volt D.C.Voltage at your wire ends.

if the fax is connected to the same line and you have a phone connected to the fax you need to make sure you connect the line from the socket at wall to the correct socket on the fax you can check this by looking at the point the line is connected on fax there should be two connectors one says line and one says tel.. the line in goes to the line socket and your telephone goes into the tel socket.. if you have them the other way round it cant connect properly..on the front display panel make sure you have it set to the auto setting or tel fax mode for receive.. if you have it to auto it will check the incoming call if it is a fax it will send it through if not it will ring till you answer.. if set to tel/fax mode when it rings you will have to answer the phone and manually press start if you hear it is a fax.. Good luck A
