When plugged in, each handset's lights work, but when I push "talk", LED reads, "not in range" = no dial tone. Another portable phone in the house on the same phone line [different jack] still DoeS work; and the corded phone still works. Yes, I will try a different battery in the base of the 3 handsets that now don't work. But if that makes no difference, then what? How can I determine that they were actually effected by the lightning? Is there anything I can do to fix them? They're several months old, but came with only a 30 day warranty. Bummer! Don't want to have to get rid of them if there's any chance they'll still work.

  1. Take that base to another jack to be sure it is the phone.

    Reset ALL the handsets by placing each in the mother base for a few seconds and boot the the mother base, unplug the power and reconnect.

    If lightning hit it, it is Fried!  Nothing you do unless you have a magic wand, I'd loan you mine but I broke it years ago LOL

    These phones are not consumer serviceable.
