If your Uniden Radar Detector isn’t powering up, check the connections at both ends of the AC Adapter. Ensure the wall switch of your room is turned on, as you might be using an outlet controlled by it. Try moving the AC Adapter to another wall outlet.
What to do if Weather Scan won’t work on my Uniden Radar Detector?
If Weather Scan won’t work on your Uniden Radar Detector, adjust squelch to the threshold and check the antenna connection. It is also possible that there are no active stations within range.
Why is the reception so poor on my Uniden Radar Detector?
If your Uniden Radar Detector experiences poor reception, first check the antenna connection and try moving the antenna. If the programmed frequency is higher than 406MHz, using a shorter antenna may improve reception. Relocating the scanner might also help. If you are in a fringe area, you might need an optional multi-band antenna.
What to do if the scan won’t start on my Uniden Radar Detector?
If your Uniden Radar Detector scan won't start, try pressing the SCAN key again. Also, adjust the Squelch control. If 50 channels are locked out, unlock the channels as needed.
Why won’t the scan stop on my Uniden Radar Detector?
If the scan on your Uniden Radar Detector won't stop, adjust the squelch to the threshold. Check the antenna connection. If many channels are locked out, the scanner has less chance of finding an active channel. Review each channel’s frequency to ensure it is correct and no memory has been lost. It is also possible that none of the programmed frequencies are active at this time.
