What color(s) flash when you plug it back in and how many flashes ( I know you said 2, but double check it )

Proteus 09-06-2012 03:06 AM

Green green blue blue white

gregzz4 09-06-2012 03:13 AM

That's a color combo I can't find any info on for you
It's not even close to any of the error code combos

Have you tried leaving it unplugged for a couple of mins ?

You may have to contact Ecotech
I wonder if you got a power surge ...

gregzz4 09-06-2012 03:17 AM

I found this on the web

http://community.ecotechmarine.com/e...green_and_blue

Let us know what happens

Proteus 09-06-2012 03:22 AM

I'll plug it in in a minute. It's been unplugged for a hour

Thanks for your help

gregzz4 09-06-2012 05:11 AM

Any luck ??

Proteus 09-06-2012 06:37 AM

No

I emailed exotech so I'll see tomorrow

gregzz4 09-06-2012 07:18 AM

Hope it works out for you
I suspect, without more info, you may have suffered a power spike/surge

If that's the case, you may consider keeping your more sensitive items on surge suppressors

I keep all my sensitive fish electronics plugged into suppressors
It does cause me some 'faults' sometimes, but it's worth the headache

Again, I hope your issue is a simple one

Looking forward to hearing your results

are you right in Devon or in the farmland outside of it?

right in is fed from the substation and is pretty good, but some of the farmland really close is fed from farther away, and with all that oilfield out there there is alot of problems in lightning season.

Proteus 09-06-2012 12:33 PM

I'm right in Devon. My radion is fine kept program and alljust the time was out to lunch

I have a monster surge protector. Cost me almost as much as mp10 lol
I called fortis to ask about outage and they were unaware of any. Within 30 min of calling power was restored

Have you tried to reset it nick? I had to do that once just to get a used one I bought to start listening. Worth a shot, check on you tube for instructions

Proteus 09-06-2012 03:57 PM

I'll try that. Thanks Jason

Ecotech says they don't know that code. So if a reset doesn't work off to the shop with it

Well ordered a new motherboard. System fried. I'm glad that these are repairable
