Kenwood TM-2550A trouble
I have a trouble with my old TM-2550A.
When I turn it on, the unit does not show the display, only the red TX light turn on without pressing any button, even PTT. I tried to reset the CPU shorting the two pins located on the lower board. Also, I measured the CPU battery backup, showing 3,2 V aprox. (after 15 years?). Then, I test the pwr and has no output (0 W). Any ideas, and an schematic diagram would be well appreciated.

Also, I measured the CPU battery backup, showing 3,2 V aprox. (after 15 years?). I have the TM-2530A, lower wattage of the same radio. Had the same problem with mine - it turned out to be the connectors between the 'head' (front panel) and the main board. With the CPU facing up, the wires are on the far right side of the board. Clean the connections and pins, you should be fine. Ok Arnold, your answer solve the problem. I believe the connector wasn´t the problem. I found a contact connection between the chassis and the board you said. It is a copper pad rounding the screw hole that connects to ground through chassis. When I touch near it, the rig starts to operate normally. Thank you my friend. Claudio |
