Xrs797 radar detector not powering up
Check for a fuse inside the plug that you put into the cigar lighter. The silver end where the prong comes out should unscrew and hold a fuse in it.

Need to update gps
I didn't know there was a Cobra Radar Detector that has built in GPS guidance.
You'll need to update the maps, or purchase a new GPS. Yours may have issues locking onto the GPS signal, or calculating the route. If you don't have lifetime map updates, you may be able to purchase a new map download from manufacturer. However, it may make more sense to put the money toward a new model.
Making unusual alerts with Ka and x bands
It could be picking up garage door openers, which are a common false alert for radar detectors. In a neighborhood, there are all sorts of sensors that give off false alarms. I usually turn mine off when driving through a neighborhood as police are less likely to be using radar (unless in a school zone).
Doesn't detect all cops.
i drove right past highway patrol with radar gun pinter at me and it didn't make a sound...its garbage..dont buy
Pramming for cobra xrs 9330 radar detector
Here is a link to Cobra's RD product manuals page:
Cobra - Product ManualsTo the original poster, the officer could have used laser, vascar, or pacing to issue a speeding ticket. The officer also could have used a very quick burst of instant-on radar which Cobra brand radar detectors are notorious for not detecting. The officer also could have used a 35.5 Ka band radar gun. Cobra and other import brands of radar detectors usually have great difficulty detecting 35.5 Ka band radar.
