XTS 5000 Help Will not power on
Hello,
I have an XTS 5000 That I just bought from a large police and fire auction. And once I got it and charged the battery i went to turn it on and I got nothing the only thing that happened was the led on the top blinked one time green I got to beeps no screen and nothing happens when you push any buttons. I did try and read the radio and got nothing. Any help would be great. Thanks

Its possible the radio was "bricked"by a dept that detected unauthorized user ID on their trunked system and send out the "RADIO INHIBIT"tx to the radio.Locking the radio,making it a brick.Only
way to unbrick is a trip to the Motorola Depot and Moto will not unbrick the radio if you can't prove you are the original owner of the radio and have a good reason the radio is "ZAPPED"in the first place.
Most likely,that radio was a confiscated radio...
What did you get when you tried to read the radio??On the pc screen as you used CPS?
Just my two cents.

Re: XTS 5000 Help Will not power on

Re: XTS 5000 Help Will not power on
Hmm, apparently this radio has been placed on Ebay and reported as fraud.

Re: XTS 5000 Help Will not power on
Just my two cents worth but it takes balls to say"The Radio is being sold for parts/non working/repair because I have no battery and no charger to test it with"when he admits here and on RR that he has a fully charged battery
to test the radio but says the exact opposite on Ebay.....Also using the same screen name on RR,Bat Labs and also on Ebay where he is trying to hock his goods!!LOL
Maybe "ALEX"will get rid of this guy and ban this guy....??
Don't need scam artist like this on this fine group.

Re: XTS 5000 Help Will not power on
My sentiments exactly, Ko. Screw this guy. I called him out on Radio Reference for the scam he's trying to pull on ebay, so he took the discussion over here.
Re: XTS 5000 Help Will not power on
Kick him. We need to keep this resource clean and protected for all of us who do well by each other.
Re: XTS 5000 Help Will not power on
Oh,no.....
I think the guy is at it again with that radio:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/250876902745
You won't be trying to sell the radio again in the same cond,would you??
Did you run the serial no trough NCIC using a source like
www.trace.com
Did you get the bricked radio issue cleared up??Or is it still in the same BRICKED,cond???

Sold as-is, with no pictures of it powered up. Can you say SCAM?

Re: XTS 5000 Help Will not power on
brokenstolenradios.com aka Ebay, interesting how his claims on RR say he bought it at a PD auction, yeah right.
so if that's the case, why wouldn't you just call them up and ask them to un-inhibit it? I mean he legally purchased it as surplus so why would it be inhibited?

Re: XTS 5000 Help Will not power on
I can only think of one way that a department would sell it at auction. If it was a confiscated radio that had been inhibited it was Illegally put on a system and zapped and found in the possession of someone who shouldnt have it. I know its a stretch.
Re: XTS 5000 Help Will not power on
Well,
I think only way to show the radio is working is for the seller to post a pic of the radio screen on and with a piece of paper to show his Ebay screen name.
