X band radar is not showing target echoes

If you have checked the magnetron current and it is normal, then the issue with the X band radar not showing target echoes could be due to a few reasons:
  1. Antenna: Check the antenna for any physical damage or corrosion. A damaged antenna can cause a weak signal or no signal at all. If the antenna is damaged, it may need to be replaced.
  2. Transceiver: Check the transceiver for any damage or malfunction. The transceiver is responsible for transmitting and receiving the radar signals. If it is not working properly, it may need to be repaired or replaced.
  3. Cabling: Check the cabling for any damage or loose connections. Faulty cabling can cause a weak signal or no signal at all. Make sure all connections are secure and the cabling is not damaged.
  4. Signal Processing Unit: Check the signal processing unit for any damage or malfunction. The signal processing unit is responsible for analyzing the radar signals and displaying the target echoes. If it is not working properly, it may need to be repaired or replaced.
If you are not comfortable troubleshooting the radar yourself, it may be best to contact a professional technician to diagnose and repair the issue.

Clarion vx603au isn't getting past start clarion loading screen please help?

If your Clarion VX603AU is stuck on the start-up screen, there are a few things you can try to fix the issue:
  1. Perform a hard reset: Try disconnecting the power to the unit by removing the fuse or unplugging the unit for a few minutes. This can sometimes reset the system and get it past the start-up screen.
  2. Remove the navigation SD card: If the unit was working fine before you installed the wrong file on the navigation SD card, try removing the card and see if the unit starts up. If it does, replace the card with the correct file and try again.
  3. Try a firmware update: Go to the Clarion website and download the latest firmware update for your unit. Follow the instructions to install the update on the unit. This may fix any software issues that are causing the start-up screen to freeze.
  4. Contact Clarion support: If none of the above steps work, contact Clarion support for further assistance. They may be able to help you diagnose the issue and suggest a solution.

Panasonic Strada CN-R 300D. I replaced my car battery and my radio lost its functionality. The SD card lost the software. How do I get the software back?

Question edited for clarity. Question moved to maker category. Software Download Sites, but if you cut the battery power, it will be locked with the software hiding because of that. https://www.google.com/search?q=panasonic+strada+cn-r300d+software+download

JRC World Marine Transceiver. The transmitter did not work we checked handset found ok, we checked antenna found ok.

If the handset and antenna have been checked and found to be functioning properly, there may be an issue with the transmitter itself. It could be a problem with the wiring or circuitry, or possibly a malfunctioning component. It would be best to have the JRC World Marine Transceiver inspected and repaired by a qualified technician or the manufacturer.

I have a new unused

Re: Tronic T4X Battery Charger that is stuck in standby (red LED). Mine does the exact same thing. It was bought at Lidl in Norway when that company was present for a couple of years. I have taken the battery charger apart, but can not find any obvious faults, like blown components, bad soldering, etc. I also wonder why it fails like that. Just now I measured the tactile switch (mode button) with a multimeter, and it seems that it is faulty. 2 pairs is always connected, lets say pins 1 and 3 is always connected and pins 2 and 4 is always connected. No matter if the button is pressed. However pressing the button does not make a connection between the mentioned pairs of pins. There is always a 2,76 MOhm resistance between the pairs, even when the button is pressed. This makes me think that the button is faulty. This is how a tactile switch works: https://www.digikey.com/en/articles/the-basics-of-tactile-switchesEdit: I just soldered a couple of wires from either side of the switch. Then I could power up the charger and make contact between the pins while it was on and showing the red indicator light. I measured 5VDC between the wires and 0VDC when I shorted the wires. The LED did not change at all. The output of the charging leads was 30 mVDC while contact was open, and 10mVDC when the button was "pressed" (wires shorted). Maybe I have to have a battery connected for the charger to start charging/change mode? That will be the next thing to try.

My gps is stuck on magellan boot up screen.

turn on your 1210 once it boots to the magellan screen press and hold the power button for about 15 seconds, once it shuts off, power it back on by pressing and holding the power button for up to ten seconds then let it load.


if that fails,power it up and try the reset button, (either on the bottom or on the side)the little pinhole, and use a paper clip to depress the reset
button.
