Camp Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 hello all, I found a not working eagle spectrum at a flea market in Tulsa OK. I have cleaned up the battery carrier but I don't get anything on display when I press the on button. Any common failures? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geotech Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Might be the battery contacts. The C-cell pack contacts 2 metal fingers inside the box, if those metal fingers get bent backwards the battery pack will no longer touch. Probably need to open the main box and (gently) bend the fingers closer to the battery compartment. Might also be the keypad flex connector. You can open the display pod, find the flex connector, and wiggle it in the receptacle. Often that will freshen up the contact. The keypads eventually wear out, I know that years ago White's ran out of spares. They talked about getting another batch made but don't recall if they did. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
