I have a VHF XTS 3000 that gives Fail 02/85 on power up.
I can't seem to find what 02/85 means. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Fail 02/xx is the Vocoder/DSP. Although not listed specifically in the manual, 85 is like some combination of RAM/ROM failure on the vocoder board. At the end of the day the resolution is the same, swap the vocoder board.

That was it. I replaced it with a board from an old 800 MHz parts radio. The 800 stuff is good for something lol. Fired right up and worked just fine. In use at my FD today. (Volunteer FD)

Thanks Tim
